Make a donation for a personalised leaf on the tree

You can make a regular or one-off donation for a personalised leaf on the Renal Giving Tree. 

You can choose the colour and special message to be engraved on your leaf whether it's a thank you to the renal team or staff member or a dedication to a loved one. You can also pick the colour too - copper, silver or gold.

After a year your leaf can be sent to you for you to keep in a memory box or to display proudly at home or you can make a donation to keep it up on the tree at the unit for families, staff and patients to see.

How to make a donation and get a personalised leaf on the Renal Giving Tree

1. Make a one-off donation* or choose to sign up to make a small regular donation per month (minimum of 12 months) by clicking the button at the top of this page.

*You are welcome to give any amount you choose but we suggest a minimum donation of £36 or £3 per month to help us cover the cost of the leaf and ensure as many profits as possible go towards supporting the renal department.

2. When making the donation write your chosen message and select your leaf colour - copper, silver or gold in the comment box. Please note the leaves are limited to 130 characters over 4 lines including spaces and punctuation.

3. Come and see it! We will let you know when your leaf has been placed on the tree and you are welcome to come to the renal department to see it. Or if you would prefer, we can send you a photo.

4. Renew or keep? If you dedicate a leaf for one year, we will, as the end of the 12 months approaches, write and ask if you would like to keep the leaf on the tree for another year (for a further donation), or whether you would like the leaf removed from the tree and sent to you, for you to display at home
