Discover our exciting new mobile app, For Evermore
For Evermore bridges the gap between physical and digital commemoration. Powered by Memory Anchor, this new app, available on iOS and Android puts some of our most iconic cemeteries and memorials in the palm of your hand.
Features
Virtual Tours of our sites
Whether you’re at one of our cemeteries or in the comfort of your own home, you can experience a guided tour of our site by one of our expert historians.
We’ve compiled tours of some of our most visited sites around the world. Whether you’re interested in the Western Front, or the jungle battlefields of the Pacific theatre, you will be able to explore our sites and discover more about the history of the world wars and those who fought in them.
Follow the tours at your own pace and find out more about our work and the men and women we commemorate.
Every Story, For Evermore
Our new app draws on the stories in our collection: For Evermore – Stories of the Fallen. We’ve collected thousands of stories from relatives and researchers alike about some of the men and women who died during the world wars.
Now you can visit a site and scan a headstone to see if we’ve got a story about them. If we don’t, you’ll get that person’s commemoration information and any other details we have about them – you might even be inspired to research them and create a story about them yourself, ready for the next inquisitive visitor.
