Three very special 100 year anniversaries are the focus of the Finding the Fallen exhibitions; the Battle of the Somme in 2016, The Battle of Gaza in 2017 and the 100th anniversary of Armistice Day in 2018. Young people from across Norfolk research their local war memorials and uncover the stories behind the names.
Thousands of women’s lives were completely transformed during the First World War, proving their strength and bravery was essential to the war effort. Adult volunteers research the role of local women in two exhibitions exploring their active service and the legacy of women post-war.
Five exhibitions and accompanying films will be available to tour to community venues and schools around the county during the project and as a legacy after the project finishes in 2018. We would like to hear from any community organisations, churches or schools who are interested in hiring any or all of the exhibitions.
