Home Front History

"We must never forget the dedication and sacrifice of a generation and the human spirit that persists even against

the most overwhelming odds" ©

The Second World War changed Britain and its people forever and as the gap of history between then and now ever widens, our generation has an increasingly significant role to play in keeping alive the stories of the social, personal and military aspects of the war years on the Home Front. This helps us all to remember the great sacrifice and determination of a generation that lived in extraordinary times.

HOME FRONT HISTORY 'RED' PANEL 2 DONATE.

Media + Research + Archives

Over the years we have recorded a number of first-hand accounts given by people who experienced life on the Home Front. Our archive collections include unique historical images of the nation’s Home Front and we hold the only private collection of photographs of the (CCFF) Canadian Firefighters in England 1942-1945.

 

Photographs and personal anecdotes are examples of the services we provide towards taking forward the legacy of that era. 

 

Many images in our collection are available in high-resolution for immediate download. They can be licensed for commercial use in books and magazines, newspapers, television programmes, films, websites and advertisements.

 

We also have access to major collections of unique living history photographs.
