Funeral and Memorial collections

Donating to a favourite charity is a meaningful way for family and friends to come together and create a lasting tribute for someone special.

A funeral or memorial service collection is a wonderful way to honour the life of someone special. By supporting St John Ambulance, you and your loved one will help us train and equip the next generation of lifesavers, putting first aid at the heart of every community and saving lives. Thank you for considering supporting us in this special way.

You can set up a free online Funeral Collection page, or send us your donation(s) via one of the other methods outlined below.

How to set up an online funeral collection

Follow this simple process to create and share an online funeral notice and collect donations in honour of your loved one, as well as sharing photos and memories of the life you are celebrating.
