Army cadets trained to restore veterans' graves

Sounds like an interesting project.

I recall a few years ago we were meant to be doing something with the CWGC, but I don’t think anything ever came of it.

Unfortunate typo! :wink:

This was from 2021.

Lack of interest from previous Comdt AC, but nothing new there :roll_eyes:

this was either in 2014 or 2018 in recognition of the start or end of WWI there was a campaign by the CWGC to engage with the youth to have a student “sponsor” a grave - basically to find out about the individual and “maintain” (one off clean) their gravestone in the local CWGC cemetery.

With my RBL hat on i found out about it, but only as far as the publicity that they were going to do it…never seen anything about anyone actually doing it!

edit: ah no, @MikeJenvey proven me wrong…i am thinking about something else
