Exhibition at Cornish Studies Library, Redruth

April 17, 2018 by Susan Roberts Leave a Comment

 



We started work on Heart of Conflict, looking at the World War One years in Cornwall, in 2014. We worked with local groups – in particular Camborne Guides and Praze W1 – to uncover previously untold stories.

Our first exhibition was at the Cornish Studies Library, Redruth, when these stories were presented for the first time.

We were so pleased to receive flowers from a mystery donor at the opening, in memory of all the Cornish soldiers who had been killed.

All the stories can be read here on the Heart of Conflict website.
