They gave the ultimate sacrifice for us
Erika Fogg, from Accrington, and her fellow students Kai Barclay and Adam Stewart from the University of Central Lancashire are working on a project that focuses on people who sacrificed their lives for the country.
Erika, 25, said: “It is the first time these tours are being done in Preston’s New Hall Lane Cemetery.“It is awful we could only select five people out of 506 people due to time and resources, but we hope that this will encourage other people to do their own tours and volunteer Commonwealth War Graves Commission so that the public can hear about more people and their stories.
William, who was originally from Scotland, married a Preston woman and settled in the city before the First World War broke out.
