The Thank-you Campaign

100 years ago, the First World War ended and a new world began. The example and experience of those who lived through it shaped the world we live in today. In 2018, The Royal British Legion is leading the nation in saying Thank You to all who served, sacrificed and changed our world.

 We very much encourage people to be part of the Thank You movement, to express their gratitude to those who gave themselves to the war and its aftermath, and rebuilt a better nation from its darkest hour.

Communities across Britain and the allied countries changed forever. We are now asking the communities of today to come together not only to reflect and remember the huge sacrifice that so many made during the First World War, but to say Thank You to those who lived through this tragic  and remarkable time - and who put Britain on the path to becoming what it is today. It’s time to say Thank You for all they did for us.
