Community comes together to Tie A Yellow Ribbon in Poole
This free community event attracted hundreds of people to Poole Park to remember loved ones who are no longer with us.
Loved ones were remembered at Forest Holme Hospice’s annual Tie A Yellow Ribbon event in Poole Park on Saturday 14 June.
The free event, attended by the mayor and mayoress of Poole and hundreds of people, invited individuals and families to write a dedication on a yellow ribbon creating a moving display of love, loss, and unity. These ribbons will now be placed in the hospice garden, remaining there as a tribute throughout the summer months.
Tie A Yellow Ribbon was open to everyone, not just those with a connection to Forest Holme, and included a host of local craft stalls, refreshments, free children’s activities, and special choir performances helping to create a truly uplifting and inclusive atmosphere.
Hannah O’Hare, CEO of Forest Holme Hospice Charity, said: “A heartfelt thank you to everyone who joined us, and to all those who helped make this a truly meaningful occasion. Creating a space for remembrance within our community is so important.
“Every yellow ribbon tied honours a cherished life — a symbol of love and a reminder that they are never forgotten. I hope that by coming together in this way, it brings comfort and a sense of connection, helping each of us to feel a little less alone.”
The event was sponsored by MSP Capital.
