Project/Applicant Name: International Bomber Command Centre

County: Lincolnshire

Grant Received: £700,000

The International Bomber Command Centre in Lincolnshire serves to recognise and remember the sacrifice of the 57,861 people who gave their lives and over a million others who served in Bomber Command during the Second World War.

The UK’s tallest war memorial, the same height as the wingspan of a Lancaster Bomber, stands surrounded by a Wall of Names, honouring those who lost their lives protecting our freedom.

Biffa Award’s grant of £700,000 supported the creation of interactive and immersive exhibitions bringing the history to life.
