Welcome to the Wall of Remembrance Project
This project will create a single place of remembrance for all our fallen heroes - a place that families, friends and the general public can visit and remember.

Remembering Those Who Gave the Ultimate Sacrifice for Our Freedoms
Although most of our dead are buried abroad, this project will bring our fallen home. This is not a war memorial – it will not take the place of local cenotaphs or memorials that already exist.
Working Together for a Common Goal
The Association has formed an advisory board to ensure our success. They come from various areas of expertise and will work with an organization that has a proven track record in raising funds for successful National Memorials.
