Just spent two days volunteering at this fascinating yet poignant site. If you are able to help at all, the team would very much appreciate it!
Join us for the final push of our @dodpaa recovery mission for WWII pilot 2nd Lt Lester Lowry! Spaces are still available until Wednesday 23rd September to assist with the fieldwork element of the project.
You can sign up through our Volunteer Portal. It only takes five minutes to create an account. Once you've done so, apply for the excavation by first selecting "Express Interest", then choosing the dates you would like to attend.

My latest book is out! A Materiality of Internment examines the objects and artwork made in camps in WWII Germany by civilian internees and how we can interpret their experiences through those objects. @routledgebooks @Catz_Cambridge #ConflictArchaeology

So having had no takers for my Falmouth weekend. I’ve decided, to pay it forward. If ANY POLICE involved in the riots, can get time off and want a getaway…then I would love to gift you a fully paid, double room, in dog friendly Greenbank hotel in the center of Falmouth this weekend. It’s Falmouth week so lots going on and the hotel is amazing! If any of my police followers can share amongst their network, particularly area south that would be greatly appreciated! 🙏@PC_ResponseCop @Brick_Cop @Sandford_Police @CopMoustache @HantsPolice @Ex_arv_sgt

An appeal for relatives is a search to locate the next of kin for the fallen in the two world wars. Could you be connected to any of these individuals?

4 years ago today I tried to end my life. 😞4 years of highs, lows, recovery and reset. Would I swap a single day of that. Absolutely NOT. It’s sent me on a different trajectory. I’m so lucky 🍀to be here, to feel loved by the world ❤️And that’s just it. Even if u feel alone, all you have to do, as I do frequently now, is open your mouth and TALK. 🗣️Just talk. Then i promise you the world 🌎will catch u. It needs you in its universe. 💫 Like one big jigsaw puzzle, Ur piece matters. 🧩 U MATTER. #mentalhealthawareness #suicideawarness
