The World at War

Picture
Gill and Matthew with Jasdeep Singh of the National Army Museum in Woking Mosque. We were guests at the opening of the new peace garden, created in the old burial ground for Muslim soldiers of WW1. Our research and contacts in Pakistan linked the peace garden with the family of one of the soldiers in Pakistan. Our research was also used to make the BBC documentary 'Britain's Muslim Soldiers', broadcast in January 2016.
Whether you are a museum, school, education institution, history festival organiser, heritage organisation or historic site, HistoryNeedsYou will enable you to commemorate The Great War and all who took part, so you can effectively engage with as many people as possible. 

We explore the wider conflict, especially the huge contribution of Commonwealth Countries. The Western Front was only one sector of the war. 

We share the stories of battles on all the other continents too. Using poetry, diaries and letters to bring to life the experiences of people at home in Britain and, very importantly, those who were drawn into the conflict from across the world. 

Over 900,000 service personnel came from pre-independence India alone and more came from African countries, the Americas and Pacific.

​Each commemoration is tailored to your needs and can include:
  • Edutaining talks for all ages;
  • WW1 activity days for primary and secondary schools;
  • WW1 event days for families, set up specifically for your location;
  • Consultancy and expertise in setting up exhibitions for museums and heritage properties;
  • Broadcasting on TV and radio;
  • Research for historians, museums, heritage properties and education establishments.
