About us
Who we are
War has consequences. The UK’s 100,000 war memorials remind us all of the millions whose lives have been ended, or impacted, by it. Preserving these shared symbols helps us all to understand the consequences of conflict, encourage later generations to avoid such suffering and continue to say, we still remember.
War Memorials Trust works to support communities care for the war memorials which remain our shared ongoing tribute and responsibility. Encouraging best conservation practice gives the greatest chance of preserving the original war memorials as they were seen by those who lost loved ones. As current custodians we are acting today not just for ourselves but for those who went before, and will come after, us.
As a charity War Memorials Trust provides advice, offers grants and works with others to achieve its objectives. But it needs your help as it relies on donations to protect and conserve war memorials within the UK.
Equality, diversity and inclusion policy
War Memorials Trust is committed to equal opportunities and welcomes applications from all sections of the community.
