Talk: “The Remember Me Project” : Researching & remembering the WW1 & WW2 names on Hambrook Memorial

We are delighted to welcome local resident Liz Ferguson to The Barn to share her story of her one woman research into the 53 WW1 and 25 WW2 names on the Whiteshill Common Memorial, Hambrook.
As part of her talk on “The Remember Me Project” we will hear stories of brave and talented local folk and also be remembering and acknowledging those in our local villages who did so much on the Homefront during both wars.
Liz encourages participants to bring along any artefacts they may have from either of the World Wars to discuss and potentially learn more about. Some may even help further Liz’s research!

Liz will also be bringing along her teardrop caravan which houses her own mini WW2 museum and baking a traditional Trench Cake for audience members to sample, if they wish.

Refreshments available from our pop up bar. Cash and card payments accepted.

Limited free parking on site. Parking for this event will be at the Barn, BS36 1SE.

The primary purpose of this event is to raise money for WMBT and to support conservation, management, maintenance and improvement of the WMBT site.

If you wish to avoid the online booking fee then please contact the office to arrange a time to come and book in person.
