Dorothy House Firefly Appeal

Jul 9, 2025 | Events

The Dorothy House Firefly Woods contain a beautiful constellation of individually handmade ‘Fireflies’, kindly gifted by their new Art Ambassador, Bruce Munro. Each Firefly is made up of tiny separate lights, which glow together, leaving an unforgettable impression. Visit their website to find out how to dedicate a Firefly in memory of someone special to shine brightly in their memory.
