@WW1_Education @UCL_FWWCBTP It was an honour to be involved. The programme made such a difference to our students and school. Good luck in future endeavours and we will be in touch about our memory garden! ...

[Simon Bendry @WW1_Education]

Well the day is finally here. Today is the final day for @UCL_FWWCBTP and my last day on the programme. It has been an incredible journey and adventure I have loved every minute of. It has been an honour to have had this opportunity to inspire a new generation.

[RAASHistory&Politics @RAASHistory]

@UCL_FWWCBTP is no more, but what a project! Their work commemorating The First World War impacted so many & will continue to do so for years. Thanks for the opportunity to learn, improve our lessons and trips, meet like minded educators and for sharing your expertise.
