Legacy 110 - Post Visit Commemorative Projects

'Legacy 110' is an award-winning initiative which encourages students who engage in the First World War Centenary Battlefields Tour Programme to deliver a community-based First World War project.

Click on the link to view the school registration map to find an example of a Legacy110 project near you.

The aim of 'Legacy 110' is for every participating student to create an enduring legacy by impacting upon at least 110 people within their local community. The orginal aim of this was that the total number of people reached by 2019 would equal 888,246, which is equivalent to the number of British and Commonwealth soldiers who fell during the First World War. 'Legacy 110' reinforces the remembrance of these soldiers who were also so vividly commemorated in 2014 through the art installation of poppies at the Tower of London. To date, student legacy projects have reached more than 4 million people across the globe!

We hope to encourage all schools that come on one of our tours to encourage their students to create an enduring legacy of their visit by setting up a 'Legacy 110' community project to commemorate the First World War Centenary.  

Every student who completes a 'Legacy 110' project will receive a certificate of achievement and a specially commissioned First World War centenary pin badge. The best projects will also be showcased on this website and at our pretigious annual awards event.
