Rememorial WWI

NLHF project exploring how the Tees Valley moved on from the First World War by recollecting, retelling and reflecting the people's experience. #RWWI

@LizARees We have not failed to keep up registration but are actually having considerable technical issues with the website which we hope to soon have corrected. Unfortunately we have used all of our small funding revenue so this is proving difficult to correct but we are doing all we can.

Life in the wake of the First World War was not easy. The transition to peace was a difficult one and it is important that we never forget that the war did not end with the Armistice. For many survivors, true peace would never come.

From the whole Rememorial WWI team, thank you.

The Rememorial WWI project is coming to an end. We would like to thank all of our project interns, designers, volunteers, contributors, project partners, exhibition hosts, visitors and everyone who has followed us on Facebook and Twitter.

[Rememorial WWI @RememorialWWI]

We'd also like to express our profound gratitude to @HeritageFundNE for making the project possible. Finally, and most importantly, we'd like to thank the people of the Tees Valley in 1918-19 whose experiences it has been a privilege to explore.

It is wonderful to see Margaret, Ethel's daughter, here enjoying our exhibition. We have been delighted to share Ethel's story!

Margaret aged 94, visited the museum today with her son. She got a lovely surprise when she spotted a picture of her mother, Ethel, in our WWI exhibition ‘Rememorial’. Margaret’s mum worked in a munitions factory in York during WWI. Here she is standing next to her mums photo ☺️

Included in the #RWWI @DarlLibs display is a fascinating assortment of documents relating to young Fred Docherty, a local lad who was taken prisoner of war and has been a central part of all of our exhibitions. The documents are all part of the Crown Street Library collection.
