"Over the next 50 days, we need to raise £500,000 to keep our services running and provide a lifeline to grieving people" - Lucy Harmer CEO

Today, we launch our biggest fundraiser ever – and its success is critical. 

For 64 years, Cruse has supported millions of people through the darkest times of their lives. But today we face our toughest challenge yet and by taking urgent action you can help us continue our vital work for years to come. 

"I’m not really sure I’d be here without my bereavement counselling from Cruse.” 

Over the pandemic, we stretched ourselves to the limit, helping as many grieving people as we possibly could. Now, we find ourselves in the midst of a cost-of-living crisis, which is not only threatening our voluntary funding but also what we receive from government sources.  

Over the next 50 days, we need your help to raise £500,000 to keep services running – allowing us to continue to provide a lifeline to grieving people, many of whom have suffered pain so unbearable, they can’t see a way through the loss. 

"You have helped me to make progress and move forward with my life seeing the light at the end of the tunnel to finally move on in my life." 

We’re asking you, your friends, family, and everyone who’s ever been supported by Cruse, worked for Cruse and volunteered for Cruse to join in and take action today. 

This year, Cruse has already helped thousands of people.  

You have the power to help more. 

Donate, fundraise and most importantly share. The more of us that pull together, the greater our chance of success. 

If you have any problems donating or setting up your fundraiser please get in touch with our friendly fundraising team at [email protected].

"You have helped me so much and guided me so that I can begin to pick up the pieces, which is easier said than done when you are utterly heartbroken."
