Donate in Memory

Setting up an online tribute fund

Families tell us that building and keeping memories can be important when someone important in your life has died. This is why we have introduced the Much Loved Tribute Fund which you can open in the name of your special person.

The page is a private online space for you, your family, friends and colleagues to share stories and photos as you wish. You can also donate to Child Bereavement UK through the fund, making it both a special way to remember, and something that makes a lasting difference to bereaved families.

It's easy to set up a tribute fund, using the steps below:

Using the form below, let us know a few details about yourself and the person you would like to remember, and add a photo of them too.
Your page will be set up through our partners Much Loved, who will send you the link to add more stories and memories.
Share your personal page with your family and friends and encourage them to help remember your special person.

You can also search for an existing tribute fund using the box below. Remember, we’re here every step of the way to provide support and help you.

When a grandparent dies - the impact on children and young people

The death of a grandparent is often a child or young person’s first encounter with the death of someone important. Parents have a great deal to manage when their own parent or carer dies. There is the grief associated with their own loss, but also the reactions and responses of their children to the death of a grandparent.
