Arranging a collection at a funeral or memorial can be a wonderful way to celebrate the life of someone incredibly special to you.
Thank you for supporting Heart Research UK at such a difficult time, our hearts go out to you and we are so very sorry for your loss. Asking friends and family to donate at your loved one’s funeral is a lovely way to celebrate their life and support a cause that is close to your heart. It can give feelings of positivity and fulfilment when you can often feel so lost. There are different ways to give in memory at a funeral of a loved one and we can help you make it as easy as possible.
Many people choose to set up an online funeral collection page which you can personalise by adding photos and messages. It is an easy way for friends and family to donate to the funeral online, and it’s much easier to increase donations by claiming Gift Aid.
Setting up a funeral collection via a JustGiving fundraising page is an easy way to take the hassle out of collecting money on the day, increasing donations with Gift Aid and allowing people who can’t attend the funeral to still be involved.
For those who are gathering in person, collection packs are available, which we can send to you or the funeral director. The pack includes a collection box for cash, as well as envelopes for anyone who would like to post a cheque donation. Simply contact us to order your pack on the button below or by calling 0113 234 7474. Please allow us five working days to get these out to you.
