Giving in memory
Donating or fundraising in memory of someone is a very special and meaningful way to honour their life and help others at the same time.
Every year donations to celebrate the lives of people who have died help us to support and care for others at St Oswald’s Hospice. There are lots of ways you can make a difference to other people’s lives and commemorate your loved one, friend or family member. Your generosity will support someone else, helping our expert to team to provide comfort, peace and happy moments, even during difficult times.
Open a Tribute Fund
A Tribute Fund is a special way to commemorate the life of a loved one, with the option to dedicate a leaf bearing their name, on our beautiful Tribute tree in the hospice garden.
