SAVE THE DATE: HMS Dunedin Reunion at the National Memorial Arboretum, 19 June 2022
The Dunedin Society is planning to stage a reunion at the National Memorial Arboretum in Alrewas, Staffordshire on Sunday 19 June. Click here for initial details, but we will post more as we get nearer to the event. It is important to note that visits to the NMA require advance booking at a cost per car of £4. Visitors who arrive unannounced will not be admitted to the grounds. Booking is open now and can be done on the NMA website here. We have separately contacted all members of the Dunedin Society by email, but please put the date in your diary and – if you haven’t already responded and want to come or are thinking of coming, even if you are not a member – let us know using the contact button at the top of this page.
It has been a while since we last held an event at the Arboretum, so we are looking forward to seeing the HMS Dunedin memorial plinth, the HMS Dunedin memorial tree and all the other developments which have taken place at the Arboretum since it opened in 2001. We expect to conduct a ceremony of remembrance at the plinth and to gather for reminiscences and a bite to eat.
