A HOSPICE will invite people to place messages on a Christmas tree from next week.
From Monday, Teesside Hospice's annual Tree of Life will stand inside the Cleveland Centre, Middlesbrough.
People will be invited to place a bauble on it along with a message in memory of a lost loved one, or simply to celebrate Christmas.
Smaller trees will be placed in Teesside Hospice charity shops and workplaces of hospice partners.
The Stokesley support group will have a tree in Stokesley Town Hall, on December 8.
The main tree will be taken to St Barnabas Church, in Linthorpe. On December 20, a service will be held at 7.30pm.
