Thank you for thinking about making a donation or fundraising in memory of a loved one or friend. We are honoured and touched that you have thought of Anaphylaxis UK. Your donation will make a real difference to supporting people living with serious allergies by offering evidence-based information for individuals and their families, for businesses, for schools and other places of education.

There are many ways that friends and family can come together to remember and commemorate a loved one. Whether you’d like to make a one-off gift or create a lasting tribute, there are lots of ways to support our work in memory of someone special.

Funeral collections

Holding a funeral collection in memory of a loved one and asking friends and family to contribute can be a wonderful and positive way to pay your respects. Coming together to donate to a cause that meant so much to your loved one can bring comfort and unity at this sad and difficult time.

If you are arranging a funeral or memorial service, and would like to collect donations for Anaphylaxis UK, please talk to your funeral director who may be able to organise the collection on your behalf. They may also recommend using an online collection platform for family and friends to donate in your loved one’s name.

If you are printing an order of service, please consider including our web address – anaphylaxis.org.uk/donate – for guests to make an online donation.

You are also welcome to get in touch with our Fundraising Team so they can support you, answer any questions you may have, and give advice on how to pay in your collection. Please email fundraising@anaphylaxis.org.uk or call 01252 546100.

Create a tribute page

Many loved ones set up an online tribute page to celebrate the life of a special person and create a lasting tribute. It’s a place where friends and family can share memories and photos, leave messages of support, and donate to a charity close to their heart.
