Online Funeral Notice, Tributes and Donations

Share memories and collect donations

As part of our free service, we can provide you with an online tribute page that displays funeral arrangement information and collects in-memory donations for your chosen charities, including any Gift Aid.

This special memorial website in tribute to your loved one, is a place where you can share memories and stories with family and friends, light candles, add music and photos, as well as leave messages.

You keep complete control over access and display of your tribute. You can change anything or close the page at any time, if you wish.

What do you need to do?

Nothing at all. We create the tribute page for you so just wait for an email which will provide your login details and enable you to make any changes you want to the page. When the page is ready, the link can be shared with others via email, social media, text and WhatsApp.

The funeral details will also be displayed in our ‘Tribute & Donations’ section of our website for a few weeks to help provide funeral guests with all practical and donation information.

You can keep and update your tribute page for as long as you wish, completely free of charge, and we hope that you find it a source of both comfort and support.

Donations are processed by the non-profit charity MuchLoved. Donations can be collected for any UK registered charity using all major credit and debit cards. As with all online donation services, there is a small fee to cover the costs of processing, which include Gift Aid and reporting to charities. There is a 3.2% MuchLoved fee and a 1.9% + 20p payment card processing fee.
