Why Choose MHSRIP’s Garden of Memories?

The painful loss of a loved one, family, friend, partner or animal, is never easy to endure. All we are left with is a lifetime of memories. Regretfully, with time, memories fade, cemeteries deteriorate, and traditional ways of honouring loved ones disappear. MHSRIP provides a permanent, digital memory garden for your family, preserving special moments forever.

Create Your Own Private Garden of Memories

From the moment you experience loss, start saving cherished memories digitally.

  • Messages, photos, and videos.
  • Virtual visits and tributes on special occasions.
  • Annual reminders for anniversaries.
  • Virtual flower placements and charity donations in memory of loved ones.
  • Reflect on beautiful memories, or just "chat" about the loved one you've lost.

MHSRIP makes funeral and memorial planning simple:

  • Announce a loss via a personal email or text with built-in RSVP.
  • Set up your contact lists and plan funeral arrangements.
  • Create and send out a digital funeral programme to mobile phones, reducing cost and waste.
  • Allow guests to contribute messages, videos, and tributes for the service.

ONE MASTER GARDEN PER FAMILY LINE

Create a Master Family Garden (e.g. Smith Family Garden) and then add a garden for each person lost thereafter inside your master family garden. Gardens can be linked to other related families. Simply request a link and click to add. The request must be accepted by the administrator before it is linked both ways.

What Your Garden Provides

MHSRIP is every memory you have, in one place.

  • Announce

From our Gardens

MHSRIP truly brought peace to my heart. For years I have held my memories of loved ones in my head and now I can share them with the world and visit our family Garden at any time to chat to my loved ones, or just reflect on many beautiful memories.

I never imagined that I could bring so many memories of precious family that I've lost to life again. Now, when I lose a loved one, everything is so much easier. Family and friends can all communicate off one platform and I can plan and co-ordinate everything from our family Garden.

What a wonderful way to build the legacy of our family and animals in one, safe Garden of Memories. Now family and friends can share their beautiful memories and thoughts with each other, laugh and cry and safeguard our legacy forever, while also supporting charities that supported us during very sad times.
