Proposed Remembrance Trail for our local area.
In partnership with Keighley Town Council and supported by local cadet groups, we hope to produce a Remembrance Trail, which will consist of information boards on lampposts around Keighley and the Worth Valley. These will feature our local people who served in wartime and each board will be situated close to the house they lived in before the war.
For the first year, we hope to roll out the Remembrance Trail in Oakworth in October 2025.
