In Memory
Many families choose to support Calon Hearts in memory of someone special. Tribute giving, funeral donations and in-memory fundraising help honour loved ones while supporting heart screenings, CPR training and public access defibrillators.
Tribute Giving
Supporting Calon Hearts in memory of someone you love is a personal and meaningful way to honour their life. It can also help protect other families through earlier awareness, screening, CPR training and access to defibrillators.
You can create a free online Tribute Fund through our partner MuchLoved: a lasting place to share memories and photos, light a candle and collect donations in your loved one's name. Family and friends can find and add to an existing tribute at any time.
Every tribute shared and every gift given in memory helps honour a life and legacy while supporting practical work that can save lives.

Hearts Of Gold
Hearts Of Gold is Calon Hearts’ Christmas remembrance appeal. Gold hearts symbolise the lives of people remembered with love, while helping raise funds for heart screening, CPR training and life-saving defibrillators.
For many families, Christmas can bring memories of happier times with people they miss. The appeal gives supporters a thoughtful way to honour loved ones and support work that helps protect others.
If you would like to discuss in-memory fundraising, funeral donations, tribute pages or memorial campaigns, the Calon Hearts team will support you sensitively and help you find the approach that feels right.
