West End at War Event

We were delighted to be a part of the "West End at War" event in Leicester square (London) held over the weekend of 12/13 June 2004. There were many events re-creating the war time scenes of London and reflecting on people's lives at the time.

We were displaying 3 maquettes (models) of part of the monument. These created a lot of interest with many visitors. We also sold a number of pictures - at least two to visitors from Los Angeles USA. Monument badges were also popular.

We raised over £400 towards the monument fund. Many thanks to the volunteers from the Battle of Britain Historical Society who manned the event all weekend.
