Arranging a funeral collection
If you’re planning to ask for donations to be made at a loved one’s funeral or memorial service, we’re extremely grateful that you’ve thought of us at this time.
This page has some information that may help you, especially during these particularly difficult times.
Funeral donation envelopes
You can request special In Memory donation envelopes and you may want to place them on seats at the venue or leave them at an appropriate place for guests to collect. You may need to check if this is something you are able to do at the venue.
The envelopes make it easy for friends and family to let us know if their donation is eligible for Gift Aid, increasing the value of each donation.
We’re also able to provide collection boxes if this is something you would like and is permitted in these current times.
If you’d like to hold your collection for a particular Sue Ryder hospice, you can contact them directly and they will be pleased to help:
- Duchess of Kent - dokh.fundraising@sueryder.org
- Leckhampton Court - leckhampton.fundraising@sueryder.org
- Manorlands - manorlands.fundraising@sueryder.org
- Palliative Care Hub South Oxfordshire - southoxfordshire.fundraising@sueryder.org
- St John's - stjohnsfundraising@sueryder.org
- Thorpe Hall - thorpe.fundraising@sueryder.org
- Wheatfields - wheatfields.fundraising@sueryder.org
If you’d prefer your donations to support all our work across Sue Ryder, please call 0207 554 5985 or email incrediblememories@sueryder.org
Please provide your full contact details, the name of the person you are remembering and the number of envelopes you’d like.
Arranging a collection online
Especially during these difficult times and with many restrictions, you may wish to create an online page to share with others. This allows anyone who can’t be with you on the day to make a donation or share a message. Starting a page in memory of someone special means you can share thoughts and light candles online as well as make donations.
For many, it is the start of an Incredible Memories Fund that you can keep visiting for years to come.

Funeral directors
If you’d like to ask a funeral director to help you collect donations, they are usually happy to help with this. You can provide them with our contact details and we’ll be happy to assist them if they need any help from us.
Please send donations to:
Sue Ryder
183 Eversholt Street
London
NW1 1BU
Or alternatively, you can send these directly to your local hospice. Find your local centre.
