Willow Wood determined to go ahead with Butterfly Release

Thursday, 7 May 2020 at 16:22

Ashton’s Willow Wood Hospice has pledged that its Butterfly Memory Release event will go ahead on July 11.

The event is one of the most popular in the hospice’s calendar and sees the release of hundreds of beautiful Painted Lady butterflies into the hospice gardens, each one in memory of someone special.

The release will comply with whatever Covid restrictions are in place at the time, and will be broadcast live on the hospice’s Facebook page.

An online dedication form will go live on www.willowwood.info soon.
