This database is an online collection of the objects and stories which we have gathered and digitised during the course of our public engagement workshops and events. The database holds digital copies of items such as medals, letters, postcards, service records and other memorabilia relating to World War One. The items belong to relatives of those involved in the war, and interested collectors, who wish to conserve the memory and legacy of the objects by having them digitised.
The database will exist for the life of the Living Legacies project and its primary function is to collate the content from various roadshows and provide a collection, from which our academics and project partners can consider addressing research questions
