If you choose to open one of our online Tribute Fund pages, friends and family can view, donate and fundraise towards your fundraising. All of the money you raise in memory of your loved one will be looked after in a personal Tribute Fund, which can stay open for as long as you wish.
You will be able to decide what your fund supports, whether it’s a particular area of the hospital, project or appeal.

The Tree of Hope
The Tree of Hope is located in the peaceful garden at The Christie hospital in Withington. The Tree of Hope sculpture offers families, friends and supporters a meaningful way to remember and celebrate the lives of loved ones who are no longer with us, while also supporting life-changing cancer care and research.
The tree is open to visit all year round and is a cherished place for many families to spend quiet moments remembering someone special.
For those who raise £15,000 or more in memory of a loved one, a bronze leaf engraved with the name of that person is placed on the Tree of Hope. To mark the occasion, a small private ceremony is held where family and friends gather to see the engraved leaf added to the tree and celebrate the life of a loved one who has been affected by cancer.
