I am looking for at least two people to help me set up a charity. The aim of the charity is to provide grave markers for civilians killed in the First World War. And To report to the relevant authorities of any lost War Graves we my find-there are 200 of these in the UK.
There are two babies who were killed in the air raid on Folkestone on the 25 May 1917, who lie in unmarked graves. One aged 10 months, the other 2 months. As we approach the centenary of the war it is time to Honor these babies and other civilians killed between 1914 and 1918.Any views on this or how to go about it or contact would help Thank you in Advance Alan.

Alan, you will need to set up a committee, hold and AGM to elect your officers and adopt a constitution. The Charity Commissions web site will give you all the information on how to apply and they are very helpful. Don't be daunted by all the paperwork, the District Council have officers who can help you.
