Hello all.
  I don't know how the forum deals with this subject as it never seems to be a topic when i'm on the lookout for it. What i need to know is, are there any events in the northwest this summer that i can take my Grand children who will be nearly 7 and 9... they always add a bit :blink: . As my Daughter has said, books and films are a great insight, but to see a uniform from WWI and equipment in real display would be great for them. :poppy:

  Thanks

The reenactment groups often have their own websites which often have calender events shown, they are interesting to visit them for the photographs as well. I am sure that someone will probably be able to assist you on this forum.                                           khaki

Hullo...
As you say you are in the Northwest take a look at these chaps...

Also..over the next couple of years look out for a new group, 'D' Troop the Lancashire Hussars. A very new group just starting out this year and hoping to begin mounted displays in 2013 and play major roles in 2014.

Cheers
