Commonwealth War Graves Commission is marking D-Day with a programme of events which will reach people across the UK, Italy and in France.
These momentous events aim to build connections between veterans and young people, and bring people together to pass the Torch of Commemoration to the next generation.
Events will take place at locations across the UK before crossing to Normandy for 6th June D-Day 80 anniversary.
