THE TREE OF LIFE
This TREE was planted by the Lord Mayor and the Lady Mayoress on behalf of the Village charity, in memory of those lost to
HIV/AIDS

World AIDS day 1st December 1993

This area surrounding the TREE was improved in the summer of 2000 as part of the BEACON OF HOPE project.

The existing Tree of Life has had to withstand many traumas through its own life and bears the scars with pride. It is often used as a place to spread ashes and to leave floral tributes, it is also envisaged as a quiet place for contemplation. The area around the tree was subtly upgraded during the building work around the Beacon, to provide evening uplighting, an attractive hard surface around the tree in the same shape as the Beacon's podium, informal seating and creating a visual connection with the Beacon.
