Roadside Memorials

'Remember Me' Plaques

RoadPeace believes that all those bereaved through road crashes have the right to place a roadside memorial at, or near, the crash site in remembrance of their loved one.

Floral tributes and cards, while deeply meaningful, are temporary. Flowers fade and cards deteriorate, eventually leaving no trace of the loss of life they represent.

In response to the need for a visible and lasting roadside memorial, RoadPeace launched the ‘Remember Me’ plaque in 2003, in conjunction with the Metropolitan Police Service and Jenny Jones, Mayor Livingstone’s Road Safety Ambassador at the time.

RoadPeace believes that all those bereaved through road crashes have the right to place a roadside memorial at the crash site or near to the crash site in remembrance of their loved one.

The Purpose of the ‘Remember Me’ Plaque is to:

Provide a permanent memorial to lives lost and devastated through road crashes
Offer a visible reminder to other road users of the everyday risks of road use

A roadside memorial shows where an unnatural, violent, premature and unnecessary death has taken place. Families who choose to install a plaque are driven by grief, loss, and trauma, they do not want their loved one’s death to go unnoticed and often need a connection with the last place their loved one was alive.

New Designs Now Available

We are pleased to announce the launch of two new designs for the ‘Remember Me’ plaques, alongside the original design. Families and supporters can now choose the design that feels most meaningful to them.

The new plaques are currently in production and will be available within 6 weeks.
