St Elizabeth East Coast Hospice is set to hold its inaugural Daisy Day remembrance event this August.

The occasion invites friends and family in the Great Yarmouth and Waveney area to honour loved ones by marking special daisies.

The event, free to attend, will be on August 3, from 10am to 2pm at the Waveney Memorial Park near Beccles.

Participants can expect hundreds of unique handmade daisy markers displayed in colourful wheelbarrows next to the park's water feature.

Each daisy will bear the name of a friend or relative who has died.

Catherine Sheppard, the individual giving manager at St Elizabeth East Coast Hospice said: "Daisy Day will provide the chance to pause and celebrate the lives of loved ones no longer with us, while we join together with the community in the stunning surroundings of Waveney Memorial Park.

"We look forward to welcoming all to the event which is sure to be a poignant occasion."

The hospice, which also works closely with East Coast Community Healthcare, has cared for over 4,900 patients and their families since April 2019.
