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.

We'd love to send you our free resources and news updates
