Interesting to find a memorial within the Commonwealth War Graves plot to a number of Belgian soldiers who died of their wounds at the nearby 5th Northern General Hospital, Leicester. Very sad to see that one of the soldiers is unidentified. 🇧🇪 📍Leicester (Welford Road) Cemetery
On Saturday the 27th of July we welcome the Commonwealth War Graves to our open day. Come along to say hello and learn more. This will be an exciting event.
Not the best photo But a really good talk from the guys from Commonwealth War Graves Re continuing work of the CWGC from inception through to present day. Thanks to Denis and his guys from At Risk War Memorials Project for open the show and allowing us to see their work
Today was truly fantastic, thank you to the Commonwealth War Graves Mac MacDonald (Public engagement officer) and Claire Jones (Eyes on Hands on Coordinator) alongside all the other wonderful volunteers and staff. Everyone else who came really made the day, thank you.
Fabulous crowd at the “At Risk War Memorials” in Leicester today, lots of questions about the continuing recovery of casualties. Commonwealth War Graves
Great to visit At Risk War Memorials Project on Sat. memorial to men who fell from Wigston. 2nd Lt Percy Foister DCM was an NCO in 2 Leicesters serving in Mesopotamia. For actions at Sheikh Sa’ad He & 3 other NCOs received the DCM & were promoted to 2nd Lt posthumously. 3 out of 4 were KIA at The Wadi
Thanks to Leicester City Council for cutting the overgrown shrubbery outside of the chancel of All Saints Church In Leicester, home to our memorials. #leicesterheritage
These are two memorials which have recently arrived with the project. Westcotes Congregational WW1 and WW2. We have very little information about either, or the church itself, so any help would be appreciated... #Leicester BBC Leicester LeicestershireLive
