Has anyone got any ideas for a party with end of World War 1 activities to mark the centenary ?

Hi Wendy, check out this Remembrance Poem https://www.goldencarers.com/remembrance-day-poem/5266/. Kerry, the author, also suggests pinning a poppy.

Hi Wendy,
Ask your Residents if anyone had a family member in the war, find out their name, where they were born, any information you can get will help in the search. You can search them in UK archives and print them out. Then read them out to everyone and present the file to the Resident. You can't believe how proud they are. Also play the songs that came out in that war and have a sing-a-long. You can also make crepe paper poppies.

Does anyone have any good activities that can be done to stay in guideline with the social distancing and COVID 19

Hi Latonia
These activities were for VE Day during COVID-19 but I think you could adapt and modify them to use for the end of World War One

You could also have a zoom conference or something similar
