Wendover Remembers There is a group in Wendover which is trying to coordinate all the Remembrance Activities which are expected to happen over the centennial years of World War One. The intention is not to stifle originality but to make sure that events do not impinge on one another. If you are thinking of organising such an event, please contact clerk@wendover-pc.gov.uk. From this month forward, there will be an article in each edition of Wendover News using historical documents to records how the War was affecting local life, see page 9.
also to contact anyone who has a relative who was affected by World War One, again, please use the contact details on the Matters Arising page. If you would like to participate in Lights Out on Monday 4 August, please see www.1418now.org.uk/lights-out. Wendover will be remembering the outbreak of war at 11pm that day by the War Memorial.
