Medals and Memories for 2021 Remembering gallery

If you have a WWII story or images to share please email us and we will be in touch: bcplibraries@bcpcouncil.gov.uk.

Send a copy of the image (and copyright permission) a photo of an item and the text of your memories/ reminiscence. We’re working on curating these for a collection online and in libraries for people to browse.

If you are unable to email, you can post images (copies of photos – please no originals) and memories to The Bournemouth Library, 22 The Triangle, Bournemouth BH2 5RQ.

This will be an ongoing project so you can get in touch to share your memories.
