At Portcullis House for the Commonwealth Day Flag Raising Ceremony. House of Commons Speaker The Rt Hon Sir Lindsay Hoyle MP spoke about the significance of this day for our family of nations as we remember 580,850 Commonwealth soldiers who died for our freedoms during WW2, named on this Commonwealth War Graves display

A grand send off for the veterans of Normandy with the Commonwealth War Graves Torch For Peace playing a central role over the next few days of commemorations.

A privilege to be traveling to Normandy with these remarkable gentlemen and to be working with a brilliant Commonwealth War Graves team on the ground and back at base.


As we arrived into French waters a special ceremony was held with Brittany Ferries staff and Normandy Veterans. A wreath was cast into the sea and all on board joined in a moment of reflection.

Your 60 seconds (ish) cemetery chat from Commonwealth War Graves Jerusalem War Cemetery, Normandy, France. The smallest? And the youngest? Certainly a special place.

Humbled to be awarded a OBE for services to global commemoration in the King’s Birthday Honours. Commonwealth War Graves work is a joint effort. This recognition is dedicated to all my colleagues who keep alive the memory of our war dead. #KingsHonours #OBE #ProudMoment
