In this season of Remembrance, Narberth Museum has chosen to focus on the stories of those women and men from the town who served in the conflict whether abroad or on the home front.

An exhibition detailing these accounts and putting them in context has been on display at the Museum since August and will run until the end of the year. It is hoped that visitors will be able to add to the archives by sharing their own families’ stories.

Emma Scourfield, the museum’s learning officer, has created a short video giving a flavour of the exhibition which can be found on the Facebook page.

This is the latest exhibition to be curated by volunteer, Sandra Benham-Pellowe, whose father, Neville, spent time as a Japanese prisoner of war. His ordeal is documented in a memoir which tells of the hardships he endured and is a highlight of the display.

Sandra’s research skills and practical expertise have been of immense value to the Museum since she joined in 2012.

She is shortly moving to Cardiff to be near her family and we wish her every happiness there but she will be greatly missed!

From Wednesday, November 11 the Museum will revert to its full opening hours Tuesday to Saturday; 10 am to 5 pm; and on November 19, 20 and 21, admission is free.
