What does this volunteering role involve?
Volunteers help restore, enhance, and colourise historical photographs submitted by families, researchers, and community members. The goal is to preserve history, improve image clarity, and help bring personal stories from the past to life — always with respect for historical accuracy.
The minimal Supporters annual cost is a small but vital contribution that helps sustain our work in honouring and preserving the memory of those affected by the Second World War. This support enables us to continue developing remembrance tools, maintaining historical archives, and creating educational resources that ensure these stories are not forgotten. Read more..
The Supporters Community Hub has been set up to provide an area for our supporters to join, get more involved and to support us on any of our activities.By becoming a supporter, you’ll be playing an active role in assisting the society with all its varied acts of remembrance.
