Donate in memory of a loved one

female first aider careing for patient

A donation in memory is a very special way to remember a loved one, as it helps us to continue to provide vital life saving first aid for the injured and care for the most vulnerable people in society such as the elderly and homeless.

Many people choose to remember a loved one by making an in memory donation to charity, or by asking for donations as an alternative to sending flowers to a funeral. It can be comforting to know that a gift given in memory of your loved one can help us save lives and care for the injured.

Donations can be sent to us either by a relative or by the funeral director. You could, for example, arrange with the funeral director for a donation to be sent instead of flowers and they will forward this to us.

When you make a donation, we will send you a personal letter to thank you for your gift. If you ask us to, we will also send a personal letter to the next of kin of the person remembered, showing the total amount given.

You can also choose to make donations in memory at other times, for example on a special anniversary you would like to remember.

If the person you wish to remember had a previous connection with St John Ambulance, please let us know. We are always interested in the special contribution that someone has made to our work.

To make a donation over the phone, please call our supporter care line on 020 7324 4162.
