Donate in memory

A donation in memory of a loved one is a truly heartfelt way to remember a special person in your life.

Thank you for choosing to give a donation in memory of someone special. However you choose to remember them, we hope you will take some comfort in knowing that your gift will help protect wildlife and habitats around the world for years to come.

We understand that in memory gifts are hugely personal, and we have many ways for you to donate in memory of your loved one. Please don’t hesitate to get in touch with us if you have any questions or can’t find what you are looking for here, email our team at supporters@bzsociety.org.uk.

Make a one-off donation in memory of a loved one

Making a one-off donation to remember someone special is a wonderful way to celebrate a loved one. Your gift helps to support our vital work around the world, as well as right here in the UK. As a thank you, we’ll send you a special packet of wildflower seeds to sow at home in their memory.

Create a lasting tribute

You can remember your loved one with friends and family by creating an online tribute page, you’ll be able to share fond memories and fundraise for a cause they loved.

We have partnered with MuchLoved, an online in-memory platform that helps you create your own personalised and free memorial in memory of a loved one. You can add pictures, music and video, as well as light virtual candles to help you create a truly special and unique tribute site.

Please note, the button below will take you to MuchLoved, an external site we partner with.

Set up a funeral collection

If saving wildlife was close to your loved one’s heart, you could organise a Bristol Zoological Society collection for their funeral or memorial service. By remembering them, and supporting a cause they cared about, you’ll be helping to save wildlife for years to come.

If you would like to collect donations at your loved one’s funeral or memorial service, please let us know, we would love to acknowledge your gift appropriately.

Donations can be paid in online here, or offline by cheque (please don’t send cash in the post).

Please let us know the name of the person the donations are in memory of, and your name and address where you would like us to post our acknowledgement to.
