Funeral collections

A life well lived leaves a mark.

When you lose someone you love, what they stood for doesn't have to end. A funeral collection is a meaningful way to honour their life; celebrate the values they held dear and bring family and friends together to support the fairer world they believed in.

How to collect money

Whether you collect donations at the funeral or online, your loved one's fairness and compassion will continue to make a difference in the fight to end poverty.

You can collect donations at your loved one's funeral or memorial service using Oxfam's free Gift Aid envelopes.

Call us on 0300 200 1331 to request your envelopes.

Using Gift Aid envelopes means eligible donations can go even further, helping to continue your loved one's commitment to a fairer world.

We're here to help

We know that arranging a funeral can be a difficult and emotional time. If you have any questions about organising a collection or paying in your donations, our friendly in-memory team is here to help.
