Day by day, more Giants appear across the meadows of the Memorial site. This year, there are roughly 200 new silhouettes, including radio operators, medics, & a Scotsman playing the bagpipes. We look forward to welcoming visitors to see the completed installation from 12 April.

As crowds lined The Mall, the deep, unmistakable drone of the Lancaster bomber swept over London. A tribute to the heroes of the Second World War. The #VEDay80 flypast was a moving salute to all those who served. A reminder that their spirit lives on in the Armed Forces today.
