In Memoriam Giving is a way which you may prefer to remember and celebrate the life of a loved one, whilst helping the Myositis Support Group.

Many people prefer to pay tribute to a loved relative or friend by a charitable donation instead of flowers. Your funeral director will be able to make the necessary arrangements to receive donations and forward them on to the Myositis Support Group.

As this can be a distressful time the donations are typically not given with Gift Aid Declaration. At a time of sadness it would be inappropriate to ask after a donation has been made for a Gift Aid Declaration form to be completed. However, for this reason we have produced a Memoriam Donation Form which you may wish to use. This form also describes the illnesses in brief and the work of the Myositis Support Group. It is available to be downloaded here but if you prefer we can send them to you in the post.

A personalised Memoriam Donation page can also be created as a tribute and to receive online donations at our secure Just Giving site.

All gifts given in memoriam are recorded by the charity and any specific requests are endeavoured to be filled. These gifts have enabled us to continue our work of improving the diagnosis, treatment, management and understanding of Myositis in the hope of a cure.

All correspondences should be addressed to:

Myositis Support Group,
146 Newtown Road,
Woolston,
Southampton,
Hampshire,
SO19 9HR.

Cheques should be made in pounds sterling and payable to the Myositis Support Group.

On receipt of Memoriam Donations we will formally send acknowledgement to the next of kin and any further persons who have requested us to do so.

Please contact us if you have any questions about in Memoriam Giving.
