We look forward to welcoming visitors to the National Memorial Arboretum this Easter holiday. Please be aware that planned improvement works on the A38 at Lichfield, in place from 27 March to 8 April, may affect some visitor road travel. The Arboretum will remain open daily as normal, from 10am – 5pm, and signposted diversion routes will remain in place to support journeys impacted.

Discover the narratives of remarkable women by delving into the stories behind the memorials.

Through hands workshops and engaging discussions, students will explore the attributes aptitudes that have defined inspiring women who have served throughout the years.  

Students will also focus and discuss which women have personally inspired them in their own lives. 

To celebrate the The UK's first memorial for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender armed-forces personnel, we will be running a day exploring themes around the design and concept of the memorial, the themes behind it and reflections on lived experiences.

How To Book
