1245 Sunflowers

 Since 2014 the people of Stockton on Tees have been remembering those from the town affected by the 'Great War' of 100 years ago.

By learning lessons from our past we have tried to tackle problems of the present
and plan for challenges of the future.

2014

The people of Stockton on Tees came together to remember the 1,245 men and boys listed in the town's Book of Remembrance who had lost their lives in World War One. We called that project 1245 Sunflowers.
