What is a tribute page?

A Life Story Tribute page is a web page that tells the story of a person’s life who has passed away, in text images and video. It’s a place where friends and family can say nice things or add fond memories or tell stories and remember the good things about someone’s life. It is where they pay tribute to the deceased person and their life. It’s a legacy for the successors of that person to be able to read and enjoy for generations to come.

What is a Digital Plaque?

It is an online name plate on the Legacy of Sport site that is a free memorial and that displays Name, Who they are being remembered by, Date of birth and death, home town, profession and a quote. You can pay to expand your plaque to a Life Story Tribute page but some people are happy with just a Digital Plaque.

What do I do if I have a technical problem?

The tribute pages have been designed to be very simple so that everyone can use them but if you have a technical problem simply contact us through the contact us page and we’ll create a ticket to fix your problem within 48 hours.

How much does a Life Story Tribute Page cost?

Tribute pages cost £36 per year or a one off payment of £150 and we will help you to create your page too.

What happens if two of us have created page for the same person?

It is easy to avoid this by searching for the deceased fan’s name first to see if someone has already created a profile for them. If there are two profiles then talk to the other person and one of you can delete their profile. Tribute pages can have more than one page manager.

Where will the remembrance trees be planted?

There are 50 existing trees at our Gloucester Community Training Ground and we will be planting other trees once those 50 are Memorialised.

I am a living supporter, can I create a draft Tribute Page for myself so that I can be remembered how I would wish to be?

Yes you can create a draft Tribute Page when you create a tribute page and you can add other family members or friends as Administrators.

Can I arrange for a funeral reception or a remembrance lunch at the Club?

Yes you can please contact us via the contact us form and we can help you.

Where will the name of my loved one be placed for Boot Aid?

Their name will be on the side of the rugby boots and on the top of the shoe box.

How long does it take for a name to appear on the Shed Head Memorial Wall?

This is usually done every month to 6 weeks.

Can I leave money in my will to the Gloucester Rugby Foundation or to the Club?

Yes you can. Simply contact us via the contact us page and we will gratefully provide you with the relevant form to share with your lawyer.

How long will my Tribute page last for?

Tribute pages are rolling and last for as long as you make a £3 donation per month per Tribute page.

Can I receive a discount if I want to remember multiple family members?

No sorry each Tribute page is separate.

Will I find out who my boots get donated to?

Yes the recipients usually send a thank you letter to the donor of their boots via the Foundation. Sometimes children or parents are embarrassed about needing help and don’t want to be identified as requiring help or charity and if this happens we respect their wishes and the CEO of the Foundation sends you a thank you letter and describes the profile of the person or family in the community who received the boots whilst keeping them anonymised.

What happens if I stop donating to the Foundation?

Without your payments we cannot pay for the web hosting, customer support, cyber security, web development, ecommerce, digital marketing, bookkeeping etc If your donations stop you will receive reminder emails and WhatsApp messages before your digtal assets and content are compressed and archived. We make every effort to contact you and other Page Managers. That is why it is wise to have several Page Managers.

How long does the plaque last?

Each plaque is guaranteed for seven years. Because the wall is sheltered, plaques may remain in place beyond this period if they remain in good condition.

Will the plaque be removed after ten years?

No. Plaques are reviewed after ten years. Families are contacted if renewal, replacement, or retirement is required. No plaque is removed automatically.

Can plaques remain longer than seven years?

Yes. Where plaques remain in good condition, they may stay in place beyond the initial seven-year period.

Please let us know if you had a question that we did not address on the website.
