Sent to me by WG Smith Thank You

Good morning,

I have been unable to find the way to post the following which may be of interest to the wider community if not already aware.

At 2pm (UK time) on Sunday 9th May, we will be screening our tribute to those brave mariners who endured the Russian Arctic Convoys during the Second World War. As Winston Churchill describer it as ‘the worst journey in the world’.

This will be the 76th anniversary since the last convoy left Loch Ewe in Scotland and the end of the war, it coincides with Russia Victory Day.*

This 45-minute tribute is for all the family to watch and includes a special message from Her Majesty the Queen read by the Lord-Lieutenant of Ross and Cromarty, His Royal Highness the Duke of Kent, the Russian Consul General, Sir Winston Churchill’s Granddaughter Celia Sandys and five convoy veterans, including one from New Zealand and one from Canada.

The tribute will include a wreath-laying at the Russian Arctic Convoy Memorial at Cove, Loch Ewe and footage of Loch Ewe and the convoys.

We hope you can join us, to do so please visit the Russian Arctic Convoy Museum's Facebook or YouTube pa
ge on Sunday 9th May at 2pm. The video will then be available on those platforms to watch at any time.*
