How to donate to cancer research in memory of someone
Create an in-memory fundraising page
By setting up a tribute page with MuchLoved, you can honour the memory of a loved one while also raising vital funds for our research.
Setting up a page only takes a few minutes and can act as a place to make donations and share special memories.
How to set up your page
Follow these easy steps to set up your page
1. Visit MuchLoved to set up your tribute page
2. Add details about your loved one including their gender and name. You also have the option to add more details such as date of birth and some text about your loved one in the ‘Words of Tribute’ section
3. Select a theme under ‘Tribute Appearance’ that best sums up your loved one’s interests and add their image

Take on a fundraising challenge

Make a regular gift
You can remember a loved one on special days throughout the year, or give monthly, by setting up a regular donation. A regular gift from you will help our researchers to make more discoveries to defeat cancer.

Donating at funeral services
Celebrate your loved one’s life by requesting donations in lieu of flowers or collect donations at their funeral or memorial service.
If you would like to request some ICR funeral collection envelopes to help you collect donations, get in touch by email or call 020 7153 5387. We can also provide you with literature about the ICR and collection boxes.
You can also set up a funeral notice using MuchLoved in a similar way to creating a tribute page. This can be shared with funeral attendees to collect donations.
