Celebrate & RememberGiving to charity in lieu of gifts for celebrations is becoming an increasingly popular way to support Weston Park Hospital Cancer Charity. It might be a birthday, a wedding or an anniversary - the idea is simply to ask friends and family to support the Cancer Charity instead of buying gifts.  This can even be done with an online webpage, which you can set up for FREE! This allows your guests to make a donation online and at the same time leave a message. You get to see the running total from your celebration along with all the messages your guests have left. If you don't wish to do it online, just ask your guests to contribute by cash or cheque (made payable to Weston Park Hospital Cancer Charity). We will always send a letter of thanks to you showing our appreciation, and this can be passed on to your guests if you wish them to see the total raised. Give in memoryLosing a loved one is always a difficult experience. Another increasingly popular way to support the Cancer Charity is to honour loved ones who have passed away by making donations in their memory. This can be a single individual gift, a collection at a funeral, donations in lieu of flowers or through a free remembrance webpage where people can donate online and leave a message. Set up a free remembrance page If you wish to send in, or have donations from others sent in, through the post, the address is: If possible, please ensure that anyone sending in a donation mentions the name of the person it is in memory of - this is so that we can give you a total amount raised. If you wish to have a collection or ask for donations in lieu of flowers, your funeral director will usually make the necessary arrangements. However you choose to give, we understand what a sensitive issue it is and we appreciate you supporting us at such a time. Please be assured that money raised in this way plays an extremely important part in the work of the Cancer Charity and really does have a lasting impact here at Weston Park.
