Near Burton on Trent. Everyone should go there at least once.

The National Memorial Arboretum is a very moving place to visit.

I’m rather disappointed that it will be in London. More people would probably see it if it was at the National Memorial Arboretum. It would be a very fitting place for it.

Where is that. Easier to get to London probably.

Where is that.

In the centre of England at Alrewas.

Oh no it is on the news though and only the clay model ready for casting.

But I found it incredibly moving. The eyes are so good and the demeanour i thinks absolutely reflects someone at the end of a long hard emotional shift.

All to do it again the following day as the sculptor said

£179,505 raised so far.
They need £3.2million

Apparently they are miles behind with money that is needed.

And actually long overdue in my opinion.
Several members of my family owe their lives to NHS staff including myself....
I'm so pleased all the services are there.
