The only connection to that committee is thro my daughter, if I attended they would bring the police in to eject me, I am too out spoken to put up with some of the tripe dressers they have on that committee, apart from what they've read in Bill Turners books (if they have read them or just gone on the internet) they have very little knowledge of the events leading up to and during WW1, and during that war.
Without Bill Turners years of research into the Accrington Pals, none of these events would be taking place.
Bill Turner and I did a commemoration to the 90th anniversary of the Accrington Pals in 2006, NO Committee, NO working parties, Just Bill and I with the help of the curator of the Haworth Art Gallery.
If Bill was still alive he would have sorted this lot out in no time.

Sadly Bill died on July 5th 2007, 91 years to the date the Pals were relieved from the trenches after the battle of the Somme.
