In Giving Memory

A gift in memory of your loved one can help us continue to provide the advice, support and services many older people are relying on. Giving in memory can be a thoughtful way to continue supporting a cause your loved one cared about, a recognition of the help they received in later life, or simply a way of being there for others as they get older.

Making a donation in memory of a loved one is a wonderful way to celebrate their life. It's a positive way to help make their memory last and to make life better for older people.

Donating in memory in tribute to your loved one is simple, and you can do so in one of the following ways:

1. Funeral Collection

Many families decide to have a collection at a funeral or memorial service or asking friends and families to make a donation instead of sending flowers. Should you wish to make a donation in this way, in memory of your loved one, we would be most grateful. We can provide you with donation envelopes, each printed with clear instructions, which can be passed on to those who would like to donate.

Ms S was a loving Mum, Sister, Nani, Big-Nani, Aunt and Friend. She was well known and loved in the community and made a significant impact on so many of our lives. She will be greatly missed. 

We want to celebrate her amazing life and raise money for Age UK HHB in her memory.

If you were thinking of sending flowers, we'd ask that instead you donate to this very worthwhile charity.
