Create a memorial

Create a lasting place for their memories

You’re about to start creating an Unforgettable Memorial: a dedicated place to remember someone and preserve the details of their life.

Begin with their name and a photograph, then add stories, messages and more over time. Family, friends and colleagues can contribute when you choose to share it.

The main memorial details are required but if you don't have images or other information, you can skip ahead and complete these steps at a later time.

How to create a memorial online

To create an online memorial, begin with the person’s name, dates and a photograph. Add a short introduction, choose how the memorial will be shared, then invite family and friends to contribute their own messages, photographs and stories. You can edit and expand the memorial at any time.

You do not need to write a complete life story today. The opening steps create a thoughtful foundation; everything else can grow as photographs are found and people share what they remember.

Every memorial starts with six months free, with no card required. It can be public or private, and the custodian remains in control of what is published.

Start creating the memorial

What you can preserve

Bring together the details that show who they were

A meaningful memorial is not measured by how much it contains. A photograph, a familiar phrase or one well-told story can say a great deal.

A life introduction

Write a short obituary, biography or personal welcome to the memorial.

Photographs and galleries

Bring together images from childhood, family life, friendships and everyday moments.

Stories and memories

Preserve anecdotes that show their humour, character, interests and relationships.

Condolence messages

Give people a dedicated place to leave thoughtful words and remembrance.

Video and music

Include meaningful recordings and music alongside the written story.

Events and charity links

Share relevant remembrance events or causes connected with the person.

Help for each part

Practical guidance when you are unsure where to start

Use these step-by-step guides now or return to them while editing the memorial.

Remember together

Invite different parts of their life into one place

Family, childhood friends, neighbours and colleagues may each hold different photographs and memories. Once the memorial is ready, sharing its link allows them to contribute the side of the person they knew. The custodian can review guest submissions before they appear.

Your pace and your choices

Create privately before deciding when to share

You can begin quietly, return to edit and choose whether the memorial is public or private. There is no need to invite anyone until the page feels ready. If it supports a funeral or remembrance event, it can be shared before the gathering and continue growing afterwards.

Choose the right starting point

Online memorials

Understand the lasting page, what it can contain and how it grows.

Virtual memorials

Explore remembrance with family and friends participating remotely.

Digital memorial services

Use a lasting memorial before, during and after a remembrance event.
