4 Introduction Your chance to pay your personal and community tribute to those millions that gave their lives for their country or returned home wounded during or after the dreadful darkness of four years of War On 11th November 2018, the United Kingdom and its friends overseas will mark the day 100 years ago when the guns fell silent at the end of the First World War. You can play your part in remembering the sacrifice of millions of men and women by joining us in Battle s Over, a unique series of events in the morning and evening involving organisations and communities the length and breadth of our nation and in many countries abroad. Battle s Over - Sleep in peace, now the battle s over Battle s Over - The Last Post Battle s Over - WWI Beacons of Light Battle s Over - Ringing out for Peace Battle s Over - Cry for Peace Around the World 6.00am - Battle s Over - Sleep in peace, now the battle s over The sound of 1,000 bagpipes will fill the air before dawn has broken on 11th November In cities and towns throughout the land individual pipers will play Battle s O er - a traditional air played by pipers after a battle. Heralding the start of the day s commemorations, they will play the haunting tune outside churches and cathedrals, in market squares and muddy fields, on hilltops and high streets, in valleys and village greens throughout the United Kingdom, Channel Islands and the Isle of Man, and at scores of locations overseas, including Australia, Canada, the USA, Germany, South Africa, France, Spain, Denmark, Israel and Somalia to name but a few. A lone piper will play Battle s O er in front of the Tomb of the Unknown Warrior at Westminster Abbey, London, with others undertaking a similar performance in front of cathedrals in the UK. At the same time, pipers everywhere will be playing the same tune in their local communities. Following the playing of this piece of music at the Merchant Navy Associations National Memorial, Trinity Square Gardens, Tower Hill, London, at 6am, through to 7pm, when a WWI Beacon of Light will be lit, the 15,000 names of those brave Merchant Navy Seamen who lost their lives during this dreadful war will be read out by a range of people from all over the United Kingdom, in remembrance of the sacrifices made. We anticipate that this unique tribute, organised in association with the Glasgow-based College of Piping, will start the centenary media coverage on television and radio, and will provide some of the day s most moving and atmospheric sights and sounds, so if you wish to encourage a local Piper to participate by playing Battle s O er at a location of their choice (excluding Cathedrals), please ask them to register asap, providing the following information to: battlesoer@collegeofpiping.org Name of Piper, Address, Country, County, Tel, 6.55pm Battle s Over - The Last Post In association with the Air Training Corps, Army Cadet Force, Sea Cadet Force, Boys Brigade and the Light Infantry Buglers Association, the Last Post will be played at many of the 1,000 WWI Beacon sites throughout the United Kingdom, involving young people and others paying their personal tribute to those that gave their lives during World War I. 7.00pm Battle s Over - WWI Beacons of Light Later that day, after darkness has fallen, more than 1,000 Beacons of Light will be lit throughout the United Kingdom, Channel Islands, Isle of Man and UK Overseas Territories, with the first of these Beacons being lit at Westminster Abbey, London, that evening. This is a commemoration inspired by a comment made on 3rd August 1914 by Britain s Foreign Minister, Sir Edward Grey. He was looking out of his office window at dusk as gas lights were being lit along London s Mall when he remarked to a friend, The lamps are going out all over Europe; we shall not see them lit again in our lifetime. 100 YEARS OF REMEMBRANCE 4

5 Introduction Our country was about to be plunged into the darkness of the First World War, and it would be four long years before Britain and Europe would again experience the light of peace. In remembrance of the end of the war and the millions who were killed or came home dreadfully wounded, Beacons of Light will be lit around the country at 7pm on 11th November The event will also commemorate the huge army of men and women on the home front who, often in dangerous and exhausting conditions, underpinned the war effort - keeping the wheels of industry turning and bringing home the harvests. The beacons will symbolise the light of hope that emerged from the darkness of war. Among the communities and other organisations that have confirmed their involvement are the Tan Hill Inn, Yorkshire Dales, the highest pub in Great Britain; Unst, the most northerly inhabited island in Scotland; St David s, the most westerly city in Wales; Lowestoft, Suffolk, the most easterly town in England, and St Macartin s Cathedral, Enniskillen, the most westerly location in the United Kingdom. We do hope that your council and community will also choose to take part in this historic tribute. There are a number of cost-effective ways of participating. (1) Use existing beacon braziers set on tall wooden poles and gas-fuelled beacons previously used for other historic anniversaries, celebrations and commemorations. (2) Build and light a traditional bonfire beacon. See page 15. (3) Purchase the gas-fuelled beacon being specially produced for this project. Afterwards, it can be stored and used for future events. See page 13. (4) Build and erect a new beacon brazier on a tall wooden pole, using it as a permanent tribute to those that lost their lives in your local community during World War I. See page 14. (You may need to apply for planning permission so please contact your Local Authority Planning Department to seek their advice). Councils, organisations and individuals taking part will be able to immediately download the official Battle s Over logo free of charge by going to and similar for the special certificate shown on page 2 from 30th November 2018 by going to the same website as a permanent reminder of their involvement in this tribute. Those wishing to participate in lighting a WW1 Beacon of Light, please go to page 11 and please provide information in point 1 by 25th October 2018, sending it to brunopeek@mac.com As you will see from pages 17, 19, 21, and 23, we have four worthy and appropriate charities associated with this event, representing the Royal Navy, Army, Royal Air Force, and Merchant Navy. Please feel free to make donations direct to one or more of them. You may also wish to consider staging a public collection for them around the lighting of your beacon. 7.05pm Battle s Over - Ringing out for peace! As beacons blaze around the country, bells in 1,000 churches and cathedrals will ring out in celebration of the end of the First World War. Many people in Britain live within hearing of church bells, which call congregations to prayer and mark special occasions. But the sound of mighty bells, some of which are hundreds of years old, also provides a stirring soundtrack to historic events. The ringing of bells to celebrate the end of the Great War is being organised in association with the Central Council of Church Bell Ringers, the representative body for groups who ring bells in the English tradition with rope and wheel. It was founded in 1891 and represents 65 affiliated societies of local ringers from all over the British Isles and many other countries from Australasia to North America to Africa. The stirring sound of church and cathedral bells will provide a fitting conclusion to a day of contemplation, commemoration and, ultimately, celebration as our country and other nations reflect on events a century ago on the battlefields of Europe and at home in our factories and farms. Please encourage your local Cathedral, Minster or Church to participate by ringing their bells at 7.05pm that evening, asking them to complete the registration form found at: pm Battle s Over - Cry for Peace Around the World To coincide with the ringing of the church bells, 100 Town Criers, one for each year since the end of WW1, will be undertaking, A Cry for Peace around the World, and in the United Kingdom, the Cry will be led by a Chelsea Pensioner from The Royal Hospital, Chelsea, London, at 7.05pm that night. Those millions of brave men, along with the many left at home, did their duty for their country during the dark days of war, so let us do our duty by them, remembering and honouring them through Battle s Over. The WW1 Tunnellers & The Lamplight of Peace New light has been shed on a special breed of men who fought on the Western Front. Their job was not to charge over the top of the trenches but to sink explosive-packed tunnels deep beneath enemy lines. The allied tunnelling companies operated in such secrecy that little was known of their exploits for years after the war. Working in total silence up to 100ft underground their task was to detonate mines beneath the enemy s trenches while seeking out German tunnellers digging the other way. It was a covert war waged by civilians with little or no military training tough and resourceful men, many of whom had been rejected by the army on the grounds of health and age. 100 YEARS OF REMEMBRANCE 5

6 Introduction Their greatest victory came at 3.10am on 7th June 1917 when 19 mines were detonated at Messines Ridge in West Flanders, Belgium. A seismograph in Switzerland registered the explosions and David Lloyd George is said to have heard them over 150 miles away in Downing Street, London. Following the blasts, it took just three hours for the British troops to take the German positions. The Victoria Cross (VC) is the highest award for gallantry in the face of the enemy awarded to British or Commonwealth forces. It was awarded 628 times to 627 recipients in the First World War. However, William Hackett was the only WW1 tunneller to receive the VC. Born on 11th June 1873, he worked as a miner for 23 years in the Nottinghamshire and Yorkshire coalfields. Rejected three times for being too old, Hackett eventually enlisted on 25th October 1915, despite having been diagnosed with a heart condition. He spent two weeks of basic training at Chatham, Kent, before joining the 172nd Tunnelling Company. In June 1916, Sapper Hackett and four others were in Givenchy, France, tunnelling towards enemy lines when the Germans detonated a mine and the shaft collapsed, burying the five men. Hackett worked for 20 hours to create a hole and saved three of his comrades. The remaining soldier, Private Thomas Collins, was mortally wounded, however, Sapper Hackett stayed with him, despite having the opportunity to escape. When another explosion occurred, both men were buried alive and died together. The Victoria Cross was presented by King George V to Sapper Hackett s widow, Alice, at Buckingham Palace on 29th December In commemoration of the sacrifices made by these brave, but dedicated men, the Lamplight of Peace has been made as a unique, lasting tribute to the Tunnellers of WW1, along with the millions of other service men who died or returned home dreadfully wounded from the Great War. (See pages 27 and 28). The flame from the Lamp will be used to light the first of over one thousand WW1 Beacons of Light being lit throughout the United Kingdom, Channel Islands, Isle of Man and UK Overseas Territories, at Westminster Abbey, London, during the evening of 11th November MALTA The Nurse of the Mediterranean In 1915, as Europe s armies faced stalemate, World War 1 spread beyond the Western Front. To try to break the deadlock Britain and France led new campaigns at Gallipoli in Turkey, and Salonika in Greece. New battle fronts meant new places to treat the wounded would be desperately needed. But the allies had more than just combat casualties to deal with. Climate and conditions brought malaria and dysentery. Very quickly, there were tens of thousands of soldiers in need of urgent and ongoing care. The answer was a tiny rock in the Mediterranean Sea. At a safe distance from the front line, Malta became a hospital for more than 136,000 men. By the end of the war, it had earned itself the affectionate nickname of Nurse of the Mediterranean. To pay tribute to the many doctors, nurses and indeed the community and Government of this lovely Island, the town of Birkirkara, are taking part in this commemoration. (See page 29). CHINA Tribute to the Chinese Labours of World War 1 World War 1 pitted Great Britain and its allies against Germany. Years into the fighting the male populations were depleted. Soldiers were hunkered in trenches carved into the countryside of Europe and the allies needed help, and it came from China. British recruitment began in November 1916 in Qingdao Photo: Archant Norfolk. China. By trains and ships, the Chinese made their way to Europe, with thousands dying along the way. The story of the largest and longest-serving non-eurpean labour contingent in the war has largely been forgotten, but is slowly being rediscovered, so the tribute to these lost labourers, farmers, and young students by Tai Wee Kuang, Director, L Holding Limited is most appropriate. (See page 29). We encourage you therefore to join the many thousands of people already taking part, by participating in this unique community project, commemorating the bravery and personal sacrifice made by so many, along with celebrating the light that emerged from the darkness of war. On November 11th BBC Local Radio in England will be reflecting Armistice Day events in each of their areas: from Pipes at breakfast time to the national moments of commemoration at 11am and later in the day. Please see acknowledgements from page 30 onwards. These will be updated every three months - 31st July and 31st October Bruno Peek LVO OBE OPR Pageantmaster Battle s Over - A Nation s Tribute 100 YEARS OF REMEMBRANCE 6

7 Sleep in peace, now the battle s over The origins of military music derive from the demands of war itself, wrote Lt. Col. David J. Murray in his seminal publication from 1994, Music of the Scottish Regiments. From earliest times until the invention of radio as a means of communication, it had three principal functions. These were to pass orders and give signals in battle; to regulate the military day in camp and garrison; and to excite cheerfulness and alacrity in the soldier. The highland piper had been a prominent member of the social hierarchy of Scotland s clan system since the 15th century, when the piper seems to have ousted the bard and the harper from their positions. When the clan took the field as a fighting unit, the piper went with it, and was able, by means of the robust tone and volume of his instrument, both to entertain the men on the march to the battlefield and in their bivouacs, and also, importantly, to encourage them during the prelude to battle by playing the warlike music of the clan. In Gaelic, this rousing is called the bronsnachadh. The existence of pipes with a Scottish regiment dates to at least the 1680s. At the Battle of Waterloo the pipers played inside the squares as the French advanced, while on the march they played to cheer the soldiers up. All this changed with the arrival of the metalled road, which was to lead to the emergence of the bagpipe and drum combination, and to an avalanche of compositions in march tempo. From the time of Waterloo, continuous efforts had been made to have the pipers recognised as an integral part of the musical resources of the Scottish regiments. The highland regiments owed the approval of their pipers to the indirect influence of Queen Victoria and it was she who decreed that the pipers shall play in front of the regiments. The Queen decided she must have her own piper and in 1843 Angus MacKay was appointed as the first Sovereign s Piper, a tradition that has been maintained by the monarch ever since. Throughout history there are many examples of military pipers raising the morale of fighting troops at critical moments in battle. Piper George Findlater on the northwest frontier of Afghanistan in 1897, and Piper Daniel Laidlaw VC at the Battle of Loos in 1915 spring immediately to mind. The sound of the pipes boosted morale amongst the troops and intimidated the enemy but in doing so pipers were an easy target for the enemy, particularly during the Great War when they would lead the men over the top of the trenches and into battle. Around 2,000 pipers were either killed or injured. The origin of the Retreat march was to warn the soldier to return to his company in order to answer to his name at roll call. The tune, When the Battle s Over is a classic Retreat march. It was composed by Pipe Major William Robb ( ) of the Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders and established itself quickly in the pipers repertoire between the Boer War and Great War. It remains a very popular tune with pipers and pipe bands and it is fitting that it is the tune pipers will play at hours throughout the United Kingdom and other countries throughout the world as part of the Battle s Over unique tribute that day. In 1961, the singer Andy Stewart put lyrics to the tune. The chorus goes: March no more my soldier laddie, There is peace where there once was war. Sleep in peace my soldier laddie, Sleep in peace, now the battle s over. Stuart Letford, Manager, the College of Piping, Glasgow, Scotland. 100 YEARS OF REMEMBRANCE 7

8 History of the Last Post - The People s Anthem The Last Post - A phrase that conjures up sombre thoughts, images, and a sense of finality and closure. Although now recognised as the Bugle Call signifying the Final Farewell at a military funeral or Remembrance Parade, it was originally a call used daily by the Army. It followed The First Post (which signalled the start of the Duty Officer s inspection of the sentry posts) and signalled that the inspection of the final sentry post had taken place and all was secure for the night. It was first published in 1790, and during any prolonged battle it was also sounded to signal that fighting was over for the day and that any combatants who were still out in the field or were injured should find help or refuge by following the sound. From 1850 it became the custom overseas for it to be played when a soldier died or was killed in action and for the Regimental Bugler to play it at the graveside. The transition of the Call from being an official tune for timekeeping to one of mourning occurred during the 1880s when the overseas graveside tradition began to be observed at home. Its use in a symbolic way during Remembrance Day parades and ceremonies signifies its acceptance as a token of remembrance as well as of death. HG Wells is credited with calling the First World War (or the Great War as it was originally known) the People s War and the Last Post became the British People s Anthem, being heard with monotonous regularity during the War. The Last Post was not performed on the first Armistice Day in 1919, but was heard the following year and the practice has continued to this day. Because of the intensity of this simple piece of music it has been incorporated into the Finale of In Memoriam by Robert Steadman as well as The Armed Man by Karl Jenkins. In 1928, the custom started for the Call to be played at the Menin Gate, Ypres, Belgium every night at 8pm, apart from 20th May 1940 to 6th September 1944 due to the German occupation.

9 Battle s Over - Ringing out for Peace The History of English Change Ringing The sound of bells ringing is deeply rooted in British culture. Bells provide the grand soundtrack to our historic moments, calling us to wake, to pray, to work, to arms, to feast, to celebrate and, in times of crisis, to come together. The early missionaries used small handbells to call people to worship, with bells being introduced into Christian churches around 400 AD. Following the Reformation, many churches began to use a new technology of bells mounted on a whole wheel, which gave greater control, with the final refinement of a stay and slider to be able to set the bell. The ringer could now rotate the bells 360 degrees and stop and start the ringing at will. At the end of the war the bells rang out across the country to celebrate the coming of peace, and have followed in that celebratory role ever since. 95% of bells in the UK rang in the Millennium, a bell announced the opening of the London Olympics in 2012 and, as part of the Her Majesty the Queen s Diamond Jubilee celebrations, a floating belfry with eight bells led the Thames Pageant of 1,000 boats. In 2017 a ring of 8 bells is being installed at St George s Memorial Chapel in Ypres, whose bell tower has stood empty due to lack of funds since the chapel was built in The project has cost 250,000 in total, but there has been no trouble raising those funds - the fallen of the Great War are not easily forgotten, and the sound of bells ringing out both in commemoration and to celebrate peace is clearly still as important to many as it was in Competition developed for who had the most bells, and there was increased interest from lay people, who took over the belfry from the clergy. Rules evolved and changes could be learned by heart to create patterns where the bells are never sounded in the same order twice. These compositions were named methods, often titled after the cities they were first rung in such as Norwich, London and Cambridge. By the middle of the 18th century the ability to stand for three hours to ring a peal of 5040 changes was common, with a crowd of listeners eager to hear. Today bells ring out in the English style across the world. During the First World War c1400 bell ringers lost their lives in service of their country. The Great War Memorial Book of Church Bell-Ringers who fell in the war is on display near the ringing chamber at St Paul s Cathedral, London. It bears the following inscription: They whom this book commemorates were numbered among those, who, at the call of King and Country, left all that was dear to them, endured hardness, faced danger, and finally passed out of the sight of men by the path of duty and selfsacrifice, giving up their own lives that others might live in freedom. Christopher O Mahony, President of the Central Council of Church Bell Ringers. 100 YEARS OF REMEMBRANCE 9

10 A Short History of Town Criers As long as there has been news to share, there have been messengers to deliver it and Town Criers were the original newsmen finding their origins in the early Greek Empire as Spartan Runners. In fact Stentor an ancient Greek God was said to have the voice of 50 men and some men with a loud voice may be known as having a voice of a Stentorian. Town Criers in Britain are thought to have come to the fore in 1066 when news of William of Normandy s invasion was known. Men employed to remind everybody of Harold s authority passed information from town to town. These individuals were specifically employed to call out the King s proclamation. As the literacy of Britain s population remained low well into the late 19th century, people came to rely on criers and heralds as a useful way of hearing about proclamations, edicts, laws and news, as books and newspapers were generally only accessible to a small percentage of the English population. Their position became so important that harming a Town Crier was turned into a treasonable offence and even in the 21st Century, these ancient laws are supposed to guard them against heckling. As literacy spread, the Town Crier s role was eventually superseded by newspapers and modern media, but there are lots of Towns that still retain the service of its Town Crier to enhance the traditional character of their Town and promote tourism. The inaugural meeting of the Loyal Company of Town Criers, which celebrated its 25th anniversary in 2017, was held on Saturday 16th October. I would like to encourage all fellow town criers throughout the world to participate in A Cry for Peace Around the World on 11th November Proclamations, edicts, laws and news may well have been written on paper, however they were usually passed on to the general public by the Town Crier - the first (talking) newspaper. Oyez, Oyez, Oyez (roughly translated from Old French, as Hark or Listen ) became a familiar call in town squares, markets and public meeting places all over Britain, a summons for the townspeople to gather and listen to news of the plague, victories in far off lands, royal births and deaths by execution. The Town Crier would read a proclamation, usually at the door of the local inn, then nail it to the doorpost of the inn. The result of this tradition has been the naming of newspapers as The Herald and Post, the expression posting a notice, the post office and posting a message on the Internet. Brenda Willison Brenda Willison, Chairman of the Loyal Company of Town Criers. 100 YEARS OF REMEMBRANCE 10

Liaise with local fire brigade and emergency services, presenting them with your plans, and seek their advice and support. 1 Prepare site by removing top layer of turf and stack away from fire area. Obtain seven poles, 5-6m in length. Attach four guy ropes to top of one pole and anchor as shown. 2 3 Erect remaining poles as shown, ensuring tops are secured in place. Use either pallets or suitable lengths of timber, spreading them over ground area of beacon for a good through draught. Secure timber horizontally between poles as shown, preventing material placed over the framework from dropping through. Construct access tunnel to the middle of the beacon. Keep middle empty until required. Always construct the bonfire so it collapses inwards as it burns. 4 Use only wood for combustible materials. Do not burn dangerous items such as foam-filled furniture, old tyres, aerosols or tins of paint. Build upwards until height of centre pole is reached. Materials around top should be loosely packed to allow air flow. Cover bonfire to keep it dry. 5 Fill centre with suitable, dry combustible materials. Check construction is stable and remove any unsuitable materials that may have been added. Look specifically for fireworks, aerosols, highly inflammable materials or containers with such materials. 6 Construct a safety barrier out of ropes and stakes or scaffold poles to ensure public is kept at a safe distance from the fire. 7 In daylight, and just before lighting, check that there are no children or animals playing or hiding in the bonfire. Arrange for, and brief sufficient numbers of marshals. 8 The person looking after the fire should not wear lightweight clothing that could ignite easily. They should wear a substantial outer garment of wool, or other material of low flammability, and stout boots. They should know what to do in the event of a burn injury, or a person s clothing catching fire, and should have a fire blanket ready in the bonfire area along with a number of fire extinguishers. 9 Lighting: the safest and recommended approach is to use paper and solid firelighters in six places just inside the walls of the beacon to ensure an even burn. Never use flammable liquids such as paraffin or petrol to get it going as this can result in uncontrolled spread of fire or explosion. 10 To light the beacon: from poles 2m in length, prepare hand torches for lighting with paraffin-soaked rags wired around one end. Remember, paraffin is dangerous and great care should be taken. Paraffin can be used as directed, but it is still dangerous and should at all times be treated with great care - for example, always ensure all excess paraffin is drained off rags before use. If spilt on your clothes during the preparation of your beacon lighting you should replace those items of clothing before approaching any naked flames. In particular, always remember to replace the lid on any container of unused paraffin and store it in a safe place away from naked flames. Do not use an accelerant on the fire itself. Bonfire Beacon, Shipston-on-Stour, Warwickshire, England. After the event, extinguish fire and collect remaining debris. Dig over site and re-lay turf. Leave site clean and tidy. 100 YEARS OF REMEMBRANCE 15

16 Your responsibility, Legal Essentials and Safety If you are inviting personal guests to your home it is worth checking with your household insurer that you are covered in the unfortunate circumstances that there should be an accident. If your event includes inviting the public, or it is a third party venue then, where applicable, the following advice should be heeded, to ensure you have a safe and enjoyable event for everyone involved. Licensing Your local authority is responsible for licensing of such events. This includes the sale of alcohol (please see separate section) and Regulated entertainment, which includes live and recorded music along with other types of entertainment. Generally if there are going to be no more than 499 people present at your event, including staff and performers you can apply for as Temporary Event Notice. This is a simple process and can be obtained from your local Council and completed on line for only 21. If you expect more than the 499 people you will require a Premises licence to allow your event to take place. This process takes at least 28 days after you have submitted your forms, so leave plenty of time, the process may seem complicated but you can get assistance from your local licensing service at the Council. Local authorities will treat each event individually. The licensing officer s job is to advise the local authority s licensing committee on the granting of a licence should anyone object. If there are no objections the licence will be granted but you may have to agree to some conditions. It is always worth checking before you apply with the Councils licensing service to see if location already has a licence, as some open spaces are already licensed. Talk to the licensing officer as soon as possible. In Northern Ireland, if you plan to sell alcohol at an event, you will need to apply for an occasional liquor licensefrom the Northern Ireland Court Service. Safety Advisory Groups A lot of local authorities run Safety Advisory Groups for events, these groups consist of all emergency services plus other members such as the Highways authority. They can provide you will all the information you require and some have example event plans to assist you organising your events, you can normally contact them through your local Council or the Police events officers. Insurance Unfortunately accidents can happen at even the best organised events. Therefore you will need to consider and obtain insurance cover for your event, whether you are holding an event on your own premises or someone else s. Beacon/Bonfire events require specialist public liability cover. If you hire a park or venue or use land owned by a third party for your activity, they are likely to require you to have your own suitable insurance to cover your liability for any injury to the public or damage to other people s land or property. If hiring equipment for the event, you may need to insure these items; you may also need to consider cover for loss of any financial outlay you incur if the event has to be cancelled for reasons beyond your control, or loss of money, particularly if you are holding a fund-raising event. To help you obtain the appropriate insurance, and risk management advice, we are working closely with Unity Insurance Services, which is a specialist insurance broker in the voluntary and non-profit sector. They have developed a range of bespoke insurance covers specifically for the Beacon/Bonfire events. Unity is owned by a charity, The Scout Association, and donates all its profits back to charity. To obtain a quote or for more details or advice on the insurance cover you may need, please visit Unity s website, www. unityinsuranceservices.co.uk/beacons or telephone them on Alternatively, the licensing officer may be able to direct you to a suitable specialist company or broker, but you should not try to source this kind of insurance from a non-specialist. Emergency Services Tell the police well in advance about the type of event you are planning, and get in touch with your local community police officer. Write to the fire brigade and ambulance service, particularly if you are planning to have a Beacon/Bonfire, fireworks, or an event that will attract a large crowd. St John s Ambulance and the British Red Cross will provide first aid and sometimes a vehicle. You can be expected to be charged for these services. If your Council has a Safety Advisory group this process will be part of the process and will save time. Food and Drink Basic food hygiene guidelines should be followed at all times if you are providing food and drink. Caterers must have food hygiene certificates. Advice on this subject can be obtained from your local council environmental officer. If you are using outside catering companies check with your local authority to see if they are a registered food business. Alcohol If you wish to sell alcohol at your event you will need to obtain a licence, please see the section above on licensing, it is important that you obtain the correct permissions and your local authority Licensing service will help you do this. You can normally use a temporary events notice for a bar as only a small number of people can be present (less than the 499 limit). Site Clearance The local authority will arrange for clearance and disposal of litter after your event if it is on public ground (check for possible charges). You can help this process by arranging litter bins or recycling bins around the site, and a crew to clear up throughout the event. Hiring or Borrowing Equipment Your local authorities, or local event organisers may be able to help you with contacts for supplies such as marquees, portable toilets, barriers and bunting, or may in some cases have these for you to hire and borrow. You may also need to consider generators, a public address system, and emergency flood lighting. If you need to arrange insurance for your hired equipment, Unity Insurance Services can arrange this for you too. If you hire a Marquee make sure the company providing it provide you with the necessary safety certificates. All Ability Access Access for the disabled is very important. Many local authorities run community transport schemes. Talk to them about arranging transport. On green field sites access may be improved by cutting the grass before the event. 100 YEARS OF REMEMBRANCE 16

17 Message from the First Sea Lord Admiral Sir Philip Jones kcb adc Chief of Naval Staff Admiral Sir Philip Jones KCB ADC First Sea Lord and Chief of Naval Staff Images of trenches and barbed wire are an indelible part of our collective national memory, but the First World War also reached far beyond the Western Front. At sea, it stretched from the Battle of Jutland in the North Sea to the twin battles of Coronel and the Falklands in the South East Pacific and the South Atlantic Oceans, while to the east it spilled onto the beaches and clifftops of the Gallipoli Peninsula in Turkey. The lighting of Beacons will be an opportunity for families and communities around the country and overseas to remember their individual connections to these global events, and the many personal examples of courage and sacrifice. As these Centenary commemorations draw to a close, the memory of those who fought in the First World War must never be extinguished. We must continue to learn the hard won lessons of this terrible war, because today, as was the case a century ago, our own national wellbeing is indivisible from the cause of peace and security in the wider world.

19 Message from General Sir Nicholas Patrick Carter kcb cbe dso adc gen Chief of the General Staff As the lights go out and the beacons are lit it is timely to reflect on what we might learn from our forefathers experiences. We owe it to those who have gone before us to help the younger generation, further removed by time from war, to see beyond the mud and the blood and the casualties. We might learn about national resilience and community spirit, and in being prepared to fight the war we might have to fight, there is a much better chance of deterring that war from ever happening.

21 Message from the Air Chief Marshal Sir Stephen Hillier kcb cbe dfc adc ma raf Chief of the Air Staff This Tribute will be supported across the length of the UK and the breadth of her overseas territories. All of these communities made significant sacrifices in the seas, fields and skies during World War I, and this act provides the perfect opportunity to commemorate those hardships. And yet, the return of these beacons of light to the darkness reminds us of the hope which carried the Nation and her citizens through. That message of hope and inspiration is particularly apt in the centenary year of the birth of the RAF as the world s first independent air force, and I welcome the opportunity to reflect on both the grave losses and the incredible achievements which occurred during those dark years.

23 Message from Captain John Sail - National Chairman, The Merchant Navy Association Battle s Over offers a wonderful opportunity to both record and remember what was endured and forgiven but not forgotten. During the First World War attacks on merchant ships began slowly as the enemy sought to blockade Great Britain. In 1914 and 1915 a total of 342 ships and nearly 2,500 men, women and boys lost their lives with more being injured. During 1916 alone 396 ships and 1,217 seafarers lost their lives and if it were not for the introduction of the Convoy System, in 1917, many more merchant ships and their crews would have been lost and very likely the war as well. The Battle of the Atlantic was one of the most significant battles of that war and for the seafaring communities across the UK and overseas. We will remember them all now their Battle is Over. John Sail Capt J M R Sail MNM MNI MNA National Chairman His Majesty s Hospital Ship (HMHS) Britannic (below) was launched just before the start of the First World War and was laid up at her builders, Harland and Wolff, in Belfast for many months before being put to use as a hospital ship in She was shaken by an explosion, caused by a naval mine, off the Greek island of Kea on the morning of 21 November 1916, and sank 55 minutes later, killing 30 people. There were 1,065 people on board; the 1,035 survivors were rescued from the water and from lifeboats. Britannic was the largest ship lost in the First World War. 100 YEARS OF REMEMBRANCE 23

24 The Merchant Navy Association from ship to shore, from past to present The merchantile marine, as it was termed in those times, played a significant and often critical role throughout the First World War much the same as it would two decades later. In both world wars merchant seafarers and fishermen fought the enemy, the weather and the seas to keep the nation and the Armed Services supplied and able to defend themselves. Their way of life and conditions of service were austere with seafarers often not returning home for over two years, some having been sunk, survived and transferred to other ships to maintain those lines of support. During the First World War attacks on merchant and fishing vessels began quite slowly but increased significantly as the enemy sought to blockade Great Britain. In 1914 and 1915 a total of 342 merchant vessels were lost to enemy action with 2,471 men, women and boys loosing their lives. During 1916 there were 396 ships and 1,217 seamen killed. In the following year, 1917, the losses were so severe that the ships being built could not match the number of ships being lost in action with six ships a day being sunk on some days. The loss of life was increasing significantly. It was so severe that if the rate of losses of ships and men had continued the war would have been lost. No food, no fuel, no wood, no arms and ammunition especially some of the 91 million shells that were eventually produced and transferred by sea. In that year 1,197 ships were sunk through enemy action and 6,408 seamen were lost at sea with their ships their only grave the sea. The losses had to be decreased and this was achieved by the introduction of the Convoy System in In 1918 the impact of the actions in the previous year were clearly evident with 544 ships and 4,122 seamen lost. The total recorded losses for the First World War were 2,479 ships and 14,287 seamen plus 675 vessels of the fishing fleet and 434 seamen. There were many more seafarers who died ashore and were not commemorated. They had to die at sea to be commemorated even whey they were hospitalised because of their wounds. They were also off pay when their ships were sunk. They actually had to die at sea to be commemorated. The men, women and boys who were lost at sea during the First World War included lads such as Redan Sydney Jeffries (aged 13) of Lowestoft, presumed drowned on 24th October Redan was a Cook aboard the fishing vessel Vanguard. More than twenty-nine Boy seamen aged only 14 lost their lives for their King and Country. At the other end of the scale were men long overdue for retirement who insisted on doing their bit and who paid the ultimate sacrifice. Men such as A.B. Patrick Casey, aged 73, killed when the S.S. Dotterel was sunk by a mine off the French coast on 29th November they were the forgotten heroes, their lines of support were never broken.

27 The WW1 Tunnellers & The Lamplight of Peace The Lamplight of Peace is unique, and has been made as a lasting tribute to The Tunnellers, those unsung heroes of WWI who fought their war underground, constantly surrounded by darkness and danger. They were among the millions of service men and women who died or returned home dreadfully wounded from the Great War, and who are honoured as part of Battle s Over - A Nation s Tribute 11th November The WWI Tunnellers New light has been shed on a special breed of men who fought on the Western Front. Their job was not to charge over the top of the trenches but to sink explosive-packed tunnels deep beneath enemy lines. The allied tunnelling companies operated in such secrecy that little was known of their exploits for years after the war. Working in total silence up to 100ft underground their task was to detonate mines beneath the enemy s trenches while seeking out German tunnellers digging the other way. It was a covert war waged by civilians with little or no military training - tough and resourceful men, many of whom had been rejected by the army on the grounds of health and age. The British Army had about 25,000 trained tunnellers, mostly volunteer coal miners supported by almost twice that number of infantrymen working alongside them. They worked in constant fear of carbon monoxide poisoning, tunnel collapse, explosions and the dread of fighting German tunnellers hand-tohand in the dark. Their greatest victory came at 3.10am on 7th June 1917 when 19 mines were detonated at Messines Ridge in West Flanders, Belgium. A seismograph in Switzerland registered the explosions and David Lloyd George is said to have heard them over 150 miles away in Downing Street, London. Following the blasts, it took just three hours for the British troops to take the German positions. The E. Thomas & Williams Bonnetted Clanny (Meusler) Lamp The lamp was built before 1907 and is the type that WWI tunnellers of the Somme, would have taken with them from the British coalfields. Ironically, its glass was made in Prussia. The items with which the lamp has been dressed reflect the dedication and sacrifice of the tunnellers, and the awful arena in which they performed their amazing acts of heroism. The Victoria Cross The Victoria Cross (VC) is the highest award for gallantry in the face of the enemy awarded to British or Commonwealth forces. It was awarded 628 times to 627 recipients in the First World War. However, William Hackett was the only WW1 tunneller to receive the VC. Born on 11th June 1873, he worked as a miner for 23 years in the Nottinghamshire and Yorkshire coalfields. Rejected three times for being too old, Hackett eventually enlisted on 25th October 1915, despite having been diagnosed with a heart condition. He spent two weeks of basic training at Chatham, Kent, before joining the 172nd Tunnelling Company. In June 1916, Sapper Hackett and four others were in Givenchy, France, tunnelling towards enemy lines when the Germans detonated a mine and the shaft collapsed, burying the five men. Hackett worked for 20 hours to create a hole and saved three of his comrades. The remaining soldier, Private Thomas Collins, was mortally wounded, however, Sapper Hackett stayed with him, despite having the opportunity to escape. When another explosion occurred, both men were buried alive and died together. The Victoria Cross was presented by King George V to Sapper Hackett s widow, Alice, at Buckingham Palace on 29th December YEARS OF REMEMBRANCE 27

28 The WW1 Tunnellers & The Lamplight of Peace British and German Barbed Wire (pictured below left) The two strands of barbed wire, one British and one German, were found at Thiepval on the Somme Battlefield. They represent the hopelessness of trench warfare in which so many brave men found themselves tangled and dying on the barbs of a muddy battlefield. Kellingley Coal (pictured left) The pieces of coal are from the Kellingley Colliery, North Yorkshire, the last major coal mine in Great Britain. It represents the selfless civilian miners who left their loved ones to join the WWI tunnellers on the Western Front. Many of them never returned. Trench Post and Soil Sample (pictured centre) The shards of trench post built into the base of the lamp around the four panes of glass covering the various artefacts were found in a British trench during road works in 2014 at Wieltje, a hamlet north of Ypres, Belgium. The soil sample also came from a trench near Ypres. These symbolise the dreadful conditions in which those fighting on the Western Front lived and died during the four-year campaign. Ballast (pictured right) The pieces of ballast came from between the railway lines where the WWI Armistice was signed on 11th November 1918, in the railway carriage of French military commander Marshal Ferdinand Foch. Its location in the Forest of Compiègne, 55 miles north of Paris, was chosen because it was remote and discreet. The Armistice itself was agreed six hours earlier at 5am local time. Its first term was that fighting would end at 11am.

29 Tribute to the Chinese Labourers of WWI World War 1 pitted the allied powers, including Britain, France and Russia, against Germany. After years of fighting, the male populations were depleted. Soldiers were hunkered in trenches carved into the countryside of Europe. The allies needed help, and it came from China. British recruitment began in November 1916 in Qingdao China. By trains and ships, the Chinese made their way to Europe, with thousands dying along the way. Chinese workers dug trenches, repaired tanks in Normandy, assembled shells for artillery as well as transporting munitions, unloading supplies and war material. They ventured farther afield, too. The story of the largest and longest-serving non-european labour contingent in the war has largely been forgotten but is slowly being rediscovered in recent years almost a century later. It is the story of farmers, intellectuals and young students assisting the war effort during the dark and dreadful days of war. We hope that our company s tribute to these thousands of Chinese labourers that left their homes, farms and families, will start to bring more knowledge of their sacrifice, to more people around the world.

67 TMS Media - Pagemasters to the Pageantmaster Few design agencies have the privilege of working on projects of national significance. 24-page brochure for Trafalgar Weekend October From celebrations to mark the 200th anniversary of the Battle of Trafalgar and the 90th anniversary of the Royal British Legion to Fly a Flag for the Commonwealth, TMS Media has had the pleasure of working with Pageantmaster Bruno Peek on events that celebrate many important milestones in our history and culture. Much of Bruno s work has associations with historic anniversaries, for example, The Queen s Diamond Jubilee Beacons project was a high-profile televised celebration for which we designed a guide to taking part and a website for people and organisations to register events around the country. A unique 124-page leatherbound book listing all the Beacon locations for The Queen s Diamond Jubilee Beacons was presented to The Queen 4 June Location: Organisation: Co-ordinator: 8-page menu for Trafalgar Night Dinner 21 October Location: Our creative work for the hugely successful Fly a Flag for the Commonwealth in 2013 also included a website and a guide, which has been updated to showcase some of the many exciting events that took place in its inaugural year.
