Situation
There is no International Memorial to the Battle of the Atlantic.
Solution
The campaign is planning to unveil the monument in 2023, the 80th Anniversary of the battle’s official commemoration date. Although the battle ran throughout the war May 1943 was adopted as the official commemoration date. The memorial will work closely with the Museum of the Western Approaches, the Merseyside Maritime Museum and National Museums Liverpool to highlight the project and develop educational projects reinforcing just how fundamental the Battle of the Atlantic was to the war effort.
