Story
This year we commemorate 100 years since the end of the first World War. In light of this I felt it would be fitting for Allestree to purchase a Tommy Silhouette statue to be displayed in the ward as mark of respect for the fallen. All proceeds go to There But Not There 2018 Armistice project for the charity Remembered.
Below is a description and link to the sculpture.
Weighing just 11kg and only 6mm thick, the hollow outline is cut out of lightweight aluminium giving it strength and durability and stands on a 500mm x 500mm base plate with four holes to allow it to be bolted or pegged into the ground. This will be shipped in a commemorative Tommy box and can be installed at any time, but especially during the Armistice 2018 period.
A beautiful sculpture, we hope that people will treasure this, using it year after year or even installing it permanently to remember the Fallen.
