We Were There Family Day

Meet IWM’s veterans and eyewitnesses of conflict to gain a unique insight into the impact of war on people’s lives. You'll hear an array of personal stories, recollections and powerful memories from those who have experienced conflict first-hand - ranging from driving an Army tank to being evacuated from the place they called home.

All our eyewitnesses and veterans are volunteers, who give their time to share these important true stories.

You can find our special guests throughout the museum this February Half Term!
