OUR D-DAY HEROES: in memory of those who lost their lives, and those whose lives were changed forever

If your loved one played their part in the D-Day landings 80 years ago, or if you wish to pay tribute to the Greatest Generation, we are honoured to help you commemorate them.

Share your D-Day hero’s story with pride; and help today’s heroes in their memory. Whether they served in 1944 or 2024, together we can make sure veterans don't suffer in silence. As a special thank you, everyone who makes a donation will receive a commemorative "My Hero" candle to help you remember your D-Day hero.

Remember our D-Day Heroes

Dad, although not involved on June 6th, stepped forward and was prepared to make the ultimate sacrifice for his country. He was in the Royal Artillery and very soon after D-Day landed in Normandy on Sword Beach, and saw much heavy fighting up until the end of the war. He mercifully survived, but left many of his fellow servicemen there. Lest We Forget.
