Funeral collections

We understand that arranging a funeral is a particularly difficult and challenging time, when you have lost someone special.

Many families choose to celebrate the life of a loved one by making a donation in their memory to Shaftesbury. Such donations can be in lieu of buying flowers or as a memorial contribution.

When families decide to take a funeral collection for Shaftesbury, we are extremely grateful for the thoughtfulness and effort these donations represent.

If we can help you with this, please get in touch:

  • By email supporterservices@shaftesburygroup.org
  • Phone 0207 452 2121, Mon – Fri, 9am – 5pm

Alternatively, you can instruct the funeral director to request “No flowers. Donations to Shaftesbury”. Please ask them to forward all donations marked clearly to:

Gifts In Memory of
Shaftesbury North East, Coburg House, 1 Coburg Street, Gateshead, NE8 1NS

We will send an acknowledgement of your donation to the funeral director and a family contact, if you wish.

Every donation we receive in memory of a loved one is a lasting tribute, helping us to continue to tackle social isolation and enable people with disabilities to live the life they want to lead.

Thank you.
