Hi All. I would like to introduce myself, I am Keith Page (or Jimmy Page if you served with me in the army) I am also the Chairman of The Liverpool Pals Memorial Fund who are based in Liverpool, at the moment we are striding towards erecting a memorial to the men of The 17th 18th 19th 20th (Service) Battalions, The King's Liverpool Regiment who fought in the great war along side our Manchester Regiment Comrades. If you would like to learn more please check out our website at www.theliverpoolpalsmemorialfund.com and our facebook group page by the same name. Our aims are to Erect the memorial either in Aug 2014 or in Nov 2015 in time for the 100 anniversary's of the regiments being formed by Lord Derby or when the men went across the channel to the Western front. Collect artefacts from the 1914-1918 war, Collect and Research the names of the men lost at the present we have 2801, and to inform and make aware the general public, business sectors of the north west and beyond of what the Liverpool Pals did for us and our peace today. If you would like more information or to donate please look at our website or facebook page. I am also quite interested in what SWARM are doing with the possible intention of helping Merseyside find some of there lost/uncovered/hidden away memorials.

Keith,
Thank you for joining and for your wonderful introduction.
I thought your post deserved its own individual thread so I have moved it. I hope this is OK with you? I am sure that I can speak on behalf of all the SWARM members when I congratulate you on your aims. May we extend our best wishes to what is an extremely worthy cause.
Keep up the good work.
Garry
