The CWGC is inviting members of the public to attend a very special Service of Thanksgiving celebrating the centenary of our unique organisation.

CWGC staff have been busy helping with ANZAC services at the commission's sites around the world this week.

Services are being held at CWGC sites around the world this week to mark ANZAC Day but, for the first time in living memory, there will be a ceremony in a remote and picturesque corner of the Indian Ocean.

An appeal for relatives is a search to locate the next of kin for soldiers who fell in war. Could you be connected to any of these individuals?

The CWGC is giving a free fascinating talk at All Saints Cemetery, All Saints Avenue, Maidenhead, on 15 May 2017, at 11am, detailing the incredible lives of those buried there.

The famous Menin Gate stone lions were unveiled as they resumed guard at their former home in Ieper ahead of this week’s ANZAC Day services.

ANZAC Day - 25 April - marks the anniversary of the first major military action fought by Australian and New Zealand forces during the First World War.

To mark the centenary of the CWGC’s foundation by Royal Charter in 1917, a ground-breaking exhibition will be staged at CWGC Brookwood Military Cemetery near Woking, Surrey.

The Commonwealth War Graves Commission (CWGC) and the Rugby Football Union (RFU) are proud to come together to launch Rugby Remembers – a project to honour rugby players from all levels who lost their lives in the First World War.
