To coincide with the Centenary of the Battle of the Somme (1 July-18 November 1916), Oxfordshire families are urged to bring First World War photographs, letters, diaries and objects to tell their stories at the Soldiers of Oxfordshire Museum in Woodstock on Saturday 17th September between 10am and 4.30pm.
Experts from the Soldiers of Oxfordshire Museum, the Western Front Association and other organisations will be on hand to talk to visitors about the significance of their memorabilia and to help them find out more.
Living historians will be giving demonstrations and there will be displays, activities for children, support for researching a soldier and refreshments available.
This event is supported by the Heritage Lottery Fund.
Entry to the museum will be free on the day, though donations would be appreciated.
