Many people
are not aware of the 300,000 war graves that can be found here in the UK,
thousands of which can be found across Wales. To mark the centenary of
the Battle of the Somme, the Commonwealth War Graves Commission (CWGC)’s Living
Memory project is looking to raise awareness of these war graves and provide
ideas and example of how people can connect with their local war graves. To
help with this, the CWGC, alongside its partner Big Ideas Company, have
put together a really informative free resource pack. For more information
