Today the full list of beaches was announced as part of Danny Boyle’s Pages of the Sea.
There will be beaches across the UK and the Republic of Ireland, from Orkney to St Ives, Donegal to Brancaster. Visit the website for the full list of beaches.
On 11 November, communities will gather on beaches across the UK and the Republic of Ireland to say goodbye and thank you, to the millions of men and women who left their shores during the war, many never to return.
