Memorial service with Christmas carols, candle lighting and a memorial tree to remember loved ones.
Carols for the Bereaved is a memorial service taking place at Llangyfelach Church in Swansea on Sunday 6 December 2026. It's a service built around carols, held in the run-up to Christmas, and it's open to anyone who wants to spend some time remembering loved ones they've lost.
The carols are the main thing, but there are a few other parts to the service. There's candle lighting, and there's a memorial tree, so if you're coming with someone else, it's a quiet space to be together rather than something you have to do on your own. It's a service for remembering, and the carols provide the music for that.
If you've never been to Llangyfelach Church, it's in the village of Llangyfelach, just on the outskirts of Swansea. The service is on Sunday 6 December, a few weeks before Christmas, so it's a good time to stop and think about the people you're missing before the holiday rush really kicks in.
