Share Every Story, For Evermore

This Remembrance, we ask for your help in making sure the stories of those who died are never forgotten.

CWGC’s For Evermore digital archive gives everyone a way to keep these stories alive and relevant for generations to come.

If you have a story about anyone we commemorate, we invite you to upload it onto For Evermore and ensure we keep their memory alive.

Walter Tull (1888–1918) was a trailblazer as one of Britain’s first black professional footballers and Army officers in World War I.

Despite racial barriers, Tull served as a lieutenant in the British Army, leading  troops before being killed in action in 1918, and his legacy continues to inspire as a symbol of resilience and courage.
