Moments of Light - Immersive light installation at Winsley

This autumn, something extraordinary will unfold at Dorothy House in Winsley.
From October to December 2026, as evening settles over the valley, the Hospice grounds will come alive with a breathtaking new large-scale light installation by internationally renowned artist — and Dorothy House Ambassador — Bruce Munro. Known around the world for creating vast, immersive environments of light, Bruce is offering our community a rare gift: the chance to step into a landscape transformed into a place of beauty, remembrance and hope.
Visitors will wander among thousands of illuminated forms, each one glowing softly in the darkness — a constellation of light that seems to breathe with the landscape. Come alone to reflect and remember, or as a family to enjoy the wonder of this world-exclusive art. However you join us, this is an experience designed to slow the world down: a moment to pause.
Tickets are free, with visitors invited to make a donation. Every contribution will help us provide free, personalised care for people in the last 1,000 days of life, and support for those who love them.
Guests will also have the chance to dedicate a light on a Firefly; a beautiful way to honour someone special and add to a growing constellation of remembrance. The installation is a temporary extension of our Firefly Woods.
Moments of Light has been created as a gift to our community. Tickets are free because we believe everyone should be able to experience this event, without financial barriers. As a charity however, we rely on the kindness and generosity of those who are able to give so visitors are asked to give a donation.
If you’re able to give when booking your free ticket, we would be incredibly grateful. Together, we can reach more people during those last moments that truly matter.
