Gifts in Your Memory
Instead of a gift of flowers to express sympathy on the passing of their life, many of our loyal supporters suggest that their family and friends make a donation towards the services we provide to deafblind people. This is often a very special way to celebrate the thoughtfulness of a loved one who perhaps experienced a combined sensory loss or empathised with the challenging lives led by our members.
If you would like the work of Deafblind UK to benefit from a gift in your memory, this is very easy to arrange.
You can either have a request included in your Will, or add information in your Letter of Wishes which can be held with the Will. Deafblind UK has a special Book of Remembrance, in memory of Edith Wilson, a deafblind ambassador who passed away in 1992 aged 81. On display within our National Centre for Deafblindness, the pages are turned every day and commemorate the date of death, or as many supporters are now requesting, date of birth, together with any sentiments expressed by loved ones.
