Organised by Emergency Services CenotaphWe are raising at least £3.2 million to build the UK's first Emergency Services Cenotaph to honour the millions of people who have worked and volunteered in our NHS and emergency services. The monument will also honour service animals.
2 million people work and volunteer in the emergency services and the NHS - including 250,000 first responders. Whilst there are various monuments dedicated to each of the emergency services, there is no one national monument where the NHS and emergency services are honoured together - a 999 Cenotaph.
Our emergency services have been there for us, please, be there for them.

We are fundraising to raise at least £3.2 million to build the UK's first '999 Cenotaph'. This important monument is aimed to be located on Whitehall at the heart of Central London, and is being sculpted by Philip Jackson CVO and is supported by HRH The Duke of Cambridge.
20% of the £3.2m we are raising is VAT - we are currently lobbying the Government to waive the VAT on this project given how significant this national monument to our heroes will be. Should the Government waive the VAT then our fundraising target will be £2.56 million
As you can see from the photos, this is going to be an incredible monument which will stand for many centuries to come.
We can only build this important monument with your donation, so please, donate today and add GiftAid. Our emergency services have been there for us, let's be there for them."
