SHOPPERS are being invited to remember a loved one this Christmas with the help of a popular charity.
Butterwick Hospice has its annual tree of remembrance in the Newgate Shopping Centre, in Bishop Auckland.
People can dedicate a bauble to someone and funds raised will go towards running the vital services at the hospice and for those patients in need at home over Christmas.
Anyone wanting to get involved should stop by between 10.30am and 3pm from now until Saturday, December 21.
