The quirky ways Brits remember loved ones who have died – including getting a tattoo and retelling their best jokes
REMEMBRANCE The quirky ways Brits remember loved ones who have died – including getting a tattoo and retelling their best jokes
Donate in honour of someone who‘s shaped your life this Celebration Day. Your gift will continue their legacy by supporting vital work in the fields of mental health, cancer, life-threatening childhood illnesses, and end-of-life care.
All donations will be shared equally between Mind (Reg Charity No. 219830), The Royal Marsden Cancer Charity (Reg Charity No. 1095197), Make-A-Wish Foundation® UK (Reg Charity No. 295672) and Hospice UK (Reg Charity No. 1014851).
Who are you celebrating today? Share a name, a few words, or a memory — if it feels right. We‘d be honoured to read it.
Who you remember — and how — is entirely up to you.
You might share a photo, a recipe, a quote, a place, a song lyric, a funny story, or a piece of advice or inspiration — whether they were someone you knew personally or someone who simply inspired you.
Your memory will become part of a collaborative artwork we're already working on for Celebration Day 2026, woven together with others submissions into a shared tapestry of reflection, storytelling, and connection.
If you’d like to receive updates about the installation, just let us know at the end of your submission. We can't wait to hear about those who have made a lasting impact on your life.
