The Second World War Experience Centre
- The Second World War Experience Centre
The Second World War Experience Centre based in Horsforth, West Yorkshire, England, which is near Leeds, is a registered charity and museum/archive which was set up in 1998 to preserve personal memories of the Second World War before they are lost forever. The archive is international in scope and holds letters, diaries, photographs and papers donated by individuals - the collection is unique as it concentrates only on the Second World War and personal experience. A network of volunteers across the UK also tape record veterans memories for the Centre and it's collection.
The Centre is used by researchers, students, school children, authors and members of the public studying their family history. The Centre's mission is to ensure the material is shared with a wider audience as possible.
