Absolutely delighted that our @CWGC show garden was awarded gold at @HarrogateFlower! Love all my North colleagues who made the garden a reality - fabulous to work with such a highly skilled team!

Every day at exactly 09:00 the whole of Ukraine 🇺🇦 freezes, cars stop in the middle of the road, birds stop chirping, and we all pay our respects to our fallen heroes, 60 seconds to think about those 1000km away in the trenches, giving everything to keep us safe. Thank you.

How fabulous is this! Very excited! Great atmosphere - can’t wait for the show! @bradford2025

It was a pleasure to meet @YasinForBedford last week at Bedford Cemetery and talk to him about the work of the @CWGC and the casualties we commemorate there. These included local man Private Alder who was wounded at Loos and later killed in an air raid at Felixstowe in July 1917.

Join History and Heritage Yorkshire magazine writers on #YorkshireDay for a guided walk around the historic market town of Pontefract. Wander through streets steeped in history and see historic churches, the infamous castle and much more. We’d love to see you there!

While passenger planes calmly crisscross the skies over Europe, in Ukraine the skies are filled with missiles and drones. Two realities, one continent.

Fabulous to visit Cambridge City Cemetery last week, where a local 6th former, gave me a super tour of some of the @CWGC casualties he's researched. If you would like to share research on casualties, add them to our story portal, For Evermore: cwgc.org/stories/home/

Rescue operations are underway in Dobropillia, Donetsk Region, after a Russian bomb hit a local store. The number of victims is not yet confirmed. This is horrendous, dumb Russian terror. Simply an attempt to kill as many as possible. Russia is all about vile strikes like this.

It was a pleasure to meet @sam_carling_ at All Saints, Wittering and talk to him about the @CWGC and tell the stories of some of our casualties buried there. Thanks to Fr Gary and the Churchwardens for opening the church and the delicious cake!

Looking without walking by, halting the frantic pace of our lives, allowing the lives of others, whoever they may be, with their needs and troubles, to touch our heart. That is what makes us neighbors to one another, what generates true fraternity and breaks down walls and…

Honoured to meet Kevin today at @edencamp. He has played his pipes at over 7000 individual @CWGC graves in County Durham (old boundaries). A feat which took over 7 years! Thank you for your Remembrance, Kevin!

We're at @edencamp for the #WW1 weekend. There's sun for those who like it and lots of shade for those who don't! Do come and see us at the @CWGC stand.

Looking forward to this weekend when I’ll be at Eden Camp with the @CWGC stand.

“Kyiv subway has become my home.” 3:00 AM, Kyiv is under attack again. She is five. Her grandmother grabbed her in her arms and ran to the subway. All she took with her was a toy car with a broken wheel. She didn’t cry or throw tantrums. She just sat on a mat, staring into the…

It’s #BrassBandsWeek! Lovely coverage in today’s #YorkshirePost! @BrassBandsEng

Firefighting efforts and debris removal are still ongoing after another Russian strike. This was one of the most large-scale air attacks – deliberately massive and cynical. In total, 550 targets were launched, including at least 330 Russian-Iranian “shaheds”, along with missiles,…

Morning in Kyiv. No sleep. Air quality is extremely bad. City is covered in thick smoke. This is Russian terror, aimed at people who chose to stay, resist and fight.

One day, our children will become journalists and historians, I hope, and they will look back on our era from the distance of time—and they will be shocked at how exceptionally weak, pitiful, and incompetent the leaders of what was still called the free world were in the face of…

-Russia attacked Ukraine every day Donald was president the 1st time. -Russia has attacked Ukraine every day Donald has been president 2nd time -Russia is now attacking Ukraine with twice as many missiles & drones since Biden was president

In Leeds for #ArmedForcesDay with the @CWGC stand. Do call in to Briggate to see us!
