A Gift in Memory
“They helped him live well with cancer, that was his big thing. He was still Rich, he was still my dad and his diagnosis wasn’t the end.” ~ Liv, Rich’s daughter
Giving in memory is a lovely way to honour a loved one, close friend or family member, even a colleague or teammate.
Paying tribute to the memory of someone special is easy. You can make a donation now, hold a collection at the funeral or hang a leaf on our Tree of Life.
A gift to Penny Brohn UK in memory of a loved one will mean their memory lives on, while championing personalised cancer care so that we can be there for everybody, everywhere.
Create a lasting memory with our Tree of Life
A leaf on our Tree of Life is the perfect way in which to remember those special memories you hold of a person close to you, celebrate them or an occasion that you share together.
Each copper leaf costs £125 and can be engraved with a message or dedication of your choosing. Once engraved we will invite you along to hang your leaf on the tree here at the Penny Brohn UK Centre, or we can hang this on your behalf.
The leaf will remain part of the tree indefinitely, or until you decide you would like it removed.
Each leaf and dedication will support those living with cancer throughout the UK.
“…a leaf for Marilyn and one for Andy are on the tree side-by-side, and we like to think they are looking after each other.” ~ Mike
Create an online Tribute Fund
Creating a Tribute Fund is the perfect way to celebrate your loved one’s story with family and friends.
For people who have lost a loved one due to cancer, a Tribute Fund provides a meaningful way to cherish and pay tribute to that person’s life, while helping others who are going through something similar. A Tribute Fund can be personal to you and your family, allowing you to share photo’s, music and videos. People visiting the page can contribute by making donations, lighting candles or leaving messages of their own.
On the link below, you can find out more information about setting up your own Tribute Fund in celebration of your loved one.

Funeral collection and notice
Organising a Penny Brohn UK collection for your loved one’s funeral or memorial service is a special way to honour their memory and support a cause they were passionate about. You can arrange a funeral collection yourself or you can use our online Funeral Tribute Page. By setting up on online page, friends and family can donate in your loved one’s memory as well as leave a message of support, share a memory or light a virtual candle for your loved one.
The Funeral Tribute Page can act not only as a donation page, but also as a funeral notice where you can share details of the funeral service such as the location, date and time. This can then be shared with family and friends. All donations collected in your loved one’s memory will help support those living with cancer across the whole of the UK.
We can also supply you with collection envelopes to help make donating on the day easier. Just call 0303 3000 118 or email fundraising@pennybrohn.org.uk with details of how many you would like, your address, the date of the funeral and the name of your loved one, and we’ll send them out.
