Create a Lasting Tribute Page

Create a special and long-lasting online space to remember your loved one.

A tribute page is a personal online page where friends and family can come together to remember someone special. It’s a place to share stories, virtual flowers, virtual candles, photos and messages, and celebrate someone’s life in a meaningful way.

Many people choose to use third party companies – such as MuchLoved – which offer a simple and respectful way to create a lasting tribute. These pages can include details of a funeral or memorial service, as well as providing a permanent space to share pictures, music, memories and messages. Tribute pages can also be used to collect donations in memory of your loved one, all of which can go back to the hospital or department of your choice.

While many families tell us they use MuchLoved, you should feel free to use any platform you feel comfortable with. And if you’re not sure where to start, we’re here to help.

We have lots more information about fundraising on our fundraising FAQ.

Donna (pictured above at a charity golf day she organised in support of us, and below following the Thames Path Challenge) used MuchLoved to arrange her dad's funeral collection when he sadly passed away in 2023. She told us: 

When my dad passed away, I set up a MuchLoved account for my friends and family and wasnt really sure what to expect but it has been a great way for people to share messages of support as well as to donate money to help others.

I chose to use this platform as many of my friends and family are not local, so it was a great way to have everything in one place. This way people could donate or share stories and the rest of the family and our friends could see this. Some people have also shared pictures that I have not seen before which has also been great as it makes me laugh looking at some of the old ones or hearing the stories. 

I have found the site very easy to navigate and think it is a great platform to share memories and help to raise money. I would definitely recommend it.
