Sorry, we cannot find that hero. Please find your Hero on the Memorial Wall and try again, or contact us for further assistance.

Thank you for choosing to honour your hero and celebrate their life by lighting a candle on the Veterans' Foundation Memorial Wall.

You can choose either a Remembrance candle (one-off donation, minimum £5), which will stay alight for a month or an Eternal candle (monthly donation, minimum £5), which will stay alight permanently.

Thank you for choosing a Virtual Candle of Remembrance. A Remembrance Candle can be lit on any tribute page, at any time, for example, to mark birthdays or special anniversaries. A candle burns for one month and we ask for a minimum donation of £5. 

Your donation means that Candles of Remembrance aren't just a tribute, they also fund life-changing projects for our Armed Forces and veterans in need - A wonderful way of uniting the lives of those who have served our country, past and present.

'At the going down of the sun, and in the morning, we will remember them.'

Thank you for choosing an Eternal Candle of Remembrance. An Eternal Candle can be lit on any tribute page on the Memorial Wall at any time. This candle is a permanent tribute and will never go out.

We ask for a minimum donation of £5 a month, or more if you are able, for this everlasting tribute which both honours your loved ones and ensures ongoing support for today's veterans in need.

Adding Gift Aid will increase your donation by 25% from £ to £

I want to Gift Aid my donation and any donations I make in the future or have made in the past 4 years to the Veterans’ Foundation. I am a UK taxpayer and understand that if I pay less Income Tax and/or Capital Gains Tax than the amount of Gift Aid claimed on all my donations in the current tax year, it is my responsibility to pay any difference.
