Christmas memorial service
Published: 10/11/2021
COPELAND Borough Council is hosting an online Christmas memorial service next month.
The special virtual service will be available online from December 17 until the new year, to enable as many people as possible to see it without having to attend an event in person.
Residents can submit the names of their loved ones to be part of a rolling on-screen tribute as part of the service.
During this time, it will also be possible to write a personal message to be hung on a Christmas tree in the foyer of the main crematorium building.
