Over 30,000 images were digitised during 2004-2006 using a grant from Big Lottery Fund as part of Their Past Your Future. This UK-wide project sought to inspire people of all ages to truly discover the Second World War, how it shaped and altered the world's course, and why it is relevant now and in the future.
This site and the database it contains have been created by
the efforts of many people. The museum's partners are acknowledged here.
