As we prepare to mark #RemembranceDay, we are reflecting on our work with 14-18NOW. These powerful projects told stories of lives irreversibly changed by war and conflict. Thank you to everyone who joined us to remember. 📷| Eoin Carey/Marilyn Kingwill/Katielee Arrowsmith

The 2014 visit of the @royaldeluxe1 #Giants became one of the UK's leading commemorative events with @1418NOW. The artwork deliberately featured @SGHLpool in its design as a nod to the soldiers who enlisted at this iconic building. #LiverpoolGiants
