An immersive light installation will invite visitors to explore art, nature and remembrance in Bradford on Avon.

Dorothy House Hospice is presenting Moments of Light, a world premiere by internationally renowned artist Bruce Munro, at Dorothy House Hospice Care.

The installation will transform acres of the Hospice’s Winsley grounds from 1 October to 31 December 2026, marking Dorothy House’s 50th anniversary.

Visitors will be able to wander among thousands of illuminated forms, creating a constellation of light that appears to breathe with the landscape. The experience combines world-class art, nature and bereavement support, offering reflection, connection and remembrance.

Alongside the existing Firefly installation in the Hospice woodland, Moments of Light is part of an evolving collaboration using creativity and nature to support people through grief, while offering comfort and connection.

The installation runs from 1 October until 31 December. Tickets are free, although visitors will be invited to make a suggested donation. All proceeds will help the Hospice continue providing free, specialist end-of-life care.

Visitors can also dedicate a light on a Firefly to honour a loved one and become part of a growing constellation of remembrance.
