I am writing to let you know about the launch of the Football Remembers project, an initiative to mark the centenary of football played in ‘no man’s land’, for which the British Council has joined forces with the Premier League, the Football Association and the Football League. You will be able to find out more about the launch in the media.

I would also like to thank you for putting me in touch with John Krijnen who was most helpful and encouraging throughout the production process. We have referenced your exhibition in the further resources section.

The pack can be downloaded online from http://schoolsonline.britishcouncil.org/football-remembers.

We would be very grateful if you could share this with your networks and contacts, and through your online, email and social media channels (#FootballRemembers) as you see fit. The more schools that get the chance to learn about the Christmas Truce and take part in the Football Remembers competition (UK only, closes June 16th) and football match, the better!

Do let us know if you’d like any hard copies of the pack too, for your records or for distribution to partners.

With best wishes

Virginia
