The Firing Line Museum was delighted to host the official launch of the Cymru’n Cofio/Wales Remembers 1914-1918 website 26th October 2013.

This official website provides the latest information, news and events on how Wales will commemorate the centenary of the First World War between 2014 and 2018, reflecting the impact that the First World War had on Wales – and the impact Wales had on the First World War.  Over the coming months and years, it will reflect how the people of Wales will be commemorating this important centenary.

Carwyn Jones, First Minister for Wales attended the event making a keynote speech detailing his hopes that the Centenary would engage local communities in remembering and recording Welsh contributions during the First World War, at war and at home.

The website can be found at http://www.walesremembers.org/ and organisations are being encouraged to post their events and exhibitions on the website.
