Disgrifiad o'r nwyddau neu'r gwasanaethau sydd eu hangen

The next few years will see a particular public focus on the commemoration of World War One. The Bridgend Veterans Association and the Bridgend Branch of The Royal British Legion has instigated a partnership discussion on the planning process for WW1 commemoration project “Mametz Wood” with Bridgend Town Council and Bridgend County Borough Council. The aim will be to reach as many individuals, groups, communities and organisations as possible who have an interest in taking part in the development of a suitable educational legacy and memorial to those Welsh servicemen who lost their lives in the battle for Mametz Wood. Working in partnership to develop the project would involve the establishment of a steering group, cost analysis and delivering an application to The Heritage Lottery Fund (HLF). The project team would need to identify a suitable wooded area and create a memorial design, as far as possible, replicating that situated at the battle site at Mametz Wood in France.

The aim of the project is to create a lasting historical legacy including: an educational, tourism, business and community focussed, activity based memorial trail across a five phased project to those who served, suffered at home and abroad and in many cases, lost their lives as a consequence of war in this particular part of Wales.
