This formally constituted group would use an award to collect memories from those who remember Acton during wartime and to research and display photographs, documents and memorabilia about Acton. Through a special exhibition opening day, by lending the exhibition to public buildings, schools, etc, and via an annual schools essay competition the group aims to bring Acton's war-time experience to life for subsequent generations and the many people who have come to live in Acton since the war.
