Tribute Tree

Tribute Tree

Our two unique handmade Tribute Tree sculptures are located outside the Reflection Room on the first floor and on the ground floor stairwell at our Sydenham site.

Seen daily by our visitors, staff and volunteers, they help us all to remember and acknowledge those people who have been cared for by St Christopher’s.

Leaves are placed on the trees when family and friends have raised £1,000 or more in memory of their loved one, remaining there for one year (from the date it was first mounted), after which you will be given the option to donate another £1,000 and renew for another 12 months, or have your leaf taken down and returned to you in a special commemorative box to keep forever.

Donations do not need to be from just one person and can come from money raised in different ways, such as funeral donations or organising your own event.

When you have raised £1,000 or more, you simply contact us to request a Tribute Tree leaf. We will then have your leaf engraved with the name of your loved one or with a personalised message.
