This is an incredibly exciting development and super opportunity. The work will feed into @CWGC's ongoing non-commemoration programme and will play an important part in changing the way we remember the dead.
Please share widely and get in contact if you have questions!

In the 'For Evermore' exhibition at the #inflandersfields museum, you can watch a powerful film.
