Lasting Tribute is a memorial website where you can create your own online tributes to celebrate the lives of
those no longer with us.
We offer a trusted brand which is part of the Daily Mail group, and run in partnership with the regional press
publisher Northcliffe Media.
Lasting Tribute is recognised for doing a superb job in its field — with
testimonials from users of the site and through a clutch of awards from the online publishing industry.
In the past few months we have won "Outstanding Achievement Award 2008" and
"Product Development of the Year 2008" from the
Data Publishers
Association. We were also recognised by the Newspaper Society at its
Digital Media Awards 2008,
winning three prizes: "Niche Website of the Year", "Digital Innovation of
the Year" and "Digital Team of the Year".
With your help we host the largest and fastest–growing archive of tributes
in the UK with more than 3,500 new tributes added each week.
In addition to tributes originated by visitors to our website, thousands of newspaper bereavement notices,
in memoriam messages and other notices are automatically added from Northcliffe media’s newspapers in the west
and east Midlands, South Wales, the Westcountry, Gloucestershire, the south–east and Lincolnshire. This is
a service covered by the price when notices are submitted for inclusion in the local newspapers.
We also compile tributes ourselves to remember people in the
public eye who have died, which prove very popular with visitors wishing to add their own memories about people
who have gone too soon.
This website has more than a million searchable records which because they are online can be viewed around the
world.
It is easy and straightforward to add words or
pictures to this website.
People who have contributed often write to us to tell us about the comfort they
and their families have gained from submitting their memories. Visitors to the website are pleased to have
somewhere to leave their condolences.
And you can trust us because every single tribute, memory, photograph or video submitted is carefully read by
our website team based in Derby, UK, to make sure nothing offensive or upsetting is added — because most
people visit our website at what is a difficult time for them, their family and their friends.
When you create a Lasting Tribute memorial page, you will get:
- a unique web address for you too bookmark, or send to people who may wish to add their own memories
- space for up to 60 images in a personal album associated with your loved one
- space to tell their life story and why they were special
- unlimited room to add treasured memories
- the opportunity to dedicate virtual gifts to reflect their interests in life
- space to upload video and audio clips via youtube.com
- seven–days–a–week support if you need help, advice, or simply need to get in touch
with website staff.
The site is moderated seven days a week so that we can add your contributions for a much-loved relative or friend who has passed away -
and efficiently respond to your needs in a timely manner.
Our aim is to provide a space online for people to add their own memories of the deceased, though words,
pictures, sound and video, and perhaps even by dedicating a virtual gift, or buying a real one, such as planting
a tree in memory of your loved one.
