Each of the forthcoming memorial services for the men and women who participated in the Great War will be a special event.
But for me attending the event in Cheadle on November 13 2018 will be particularly poignant.
Over the last two years I have worked closely with the Trust on a new book to mark their 150th anniversary, and in the course of that project I came to know something of the young men associated with the charity who went off to fight.
A plaque has been commissioned, in memory of those who died and will take pride of place in the Cheadle grounds.
Alongside this Together Trust have also been awarded five silhouettes, funded by the Armed Forces Covenant Fund Trust for display.
Young people from our Ashcroft service have been working hard to learn more about the charity during World War One and have been involved in art work, music and poetry. A
ll will be displayed on Tuesday 13th November and we hope the local community will join us to remember those who fought.*
