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.
The death of any family member is a heartbreaking experience but to lose a child is perhaps the most painful. Now a group of parents have come together to prove that it is possible to “grow around grief”.
Speaking at the Hay Festival to mark Celebration Day, they called for Britain to break its silence around death and collectively celebrate the lives of loved ones who have died.
