The For Evermore Roadshow is underway
With just one week until we commemorate the 80th anniversary of the end of the Second World War in Europe, our For Evermore road show made its first stop of its journey across the country yesterday.
We’ve in University Square, Coventry, just outside the cathedral, where we’ll be hosting a commemorative concert in aid of the Commonwealth War Graves Foundation, and we’ve already welcomed members of the public who visited us to learn more about the stories of the men and women who we commemorate.
We’d love for you come to come down and meet us explore our interactive exhibition, where you can learn more about our work, the men and women who served in the Second World War, and the civilians who supported the war effort from home.
You can search our records, go on a virtual tour of our sites – read the stories of people from the Commonwealth who we commemorate across the world and much more.
You can also have your photo taken with the Torch for Peace and play your part as the Torch is passed from generation to generation, together presenting a timeless symbol for future peace, whilst acknowledging the circumstances and legacy of the past.
80 years on from the end of the Second World War it's never been more important, we know of many incredible stories but there's even more we don’t know. Come and visit us and share your story.
