Rickmansworth Remembers (WW1) is a project to commemorate those who made the ultimate sacrifice, those still willing to do so and those who survived and helped shape the country that we now live in.

Rickmansworth Idea stage

This project is preparing for fundraising. Click Like to show your support, or Follow for updates on this project's journey.

Rickmansworth has no Parish council and therefore we find funding anything nice for the town a challenge.

What we'll deliver:

  • Create a central communication point for local people to publish their relatives' stories
  • Host a Poppy Picnic to raise money for The Royal British Legion
  • Make & put up Poppy Bunting and WW1 Centenary on the High Street
  • Research the names of the fallen of Rickmansworth and surrounding district and build an online memorial

Why it's a great idea:

Rickmansworth Remembers is a project for all the Rickmansworth community - residents,organisations and business can get involved at many levels with this project - We will be publishing more about it on our website rickmansworthtown.co.uk This is not a project to celebrate war, but to commemorate those that paid the ultimate sacrifice for this country and those who returned to help build this country and shape our lives today.

Over the next four years we hope to hold a number of Poppy Picnics to raise money for the Royal British Legion.

We feel this is a really inclusive way for the town to show its respect in this centenary commemoration.

Steps to get it done:

  • By raising money through Spacehive and applying for grants
