Roll Of Honour - Tower Of London - part 1....

The centenary remembrance projects are all well under way now.  Many of you will have seen the news showing the wonderful filling of the moat with 888,246 ceramic poppies at the Tower of London; the number of lives lost during WW1. 

The Roll of Honour is a list of 180 names which will be read out to remember the men who gave their lives during WW1.  Everyone is free to nominate someone here.

I am pleased to announce that the following men from the St Barnabas Memorial will have their names read out on 2nd September 2014 at 19.25 -
