The Glasgow Branch of SSAFA Forces Help have been awarded a grant to hold a street party for veterans to commemorate the 60th anniversary of the end of the Second World War. Cadets will use taped conversations, videos and written notes about older residents' experiences of the war to make a panel of written memoirs. This will be used at various events to educate people about the war. A dinner dance will also be held with people encouraged to dress in the style of the 1940's.
