WILL YOU BE THERE?
The Military Diver Memorial is an ambitious project to build a long overdue Memorial to recognise and remember Military Divers - Past, Present and Future.
It is being funded entirely by the sale of 300, Limited Edition, Fine Art Certified, Bronze Statuettes.
Due to space restrictions between The Military Diver Memorial and the riverbank at the National Memorial Arboretum, attendance to the dedication will be restricted to MDM / DSD Statuette Owners (plus one guest).
If there is a high enough demand for non-statue owners to attend, more space may be made available to the rear of the memorial for the service.
Please click on the link below to be informed of any further updates.
MDM (and the variant 'Deepsea Diver') Statuettes are still available to purchase if you are able to support this long-overdue Memorial.
Military Diver Memorial Co-Chairs Paul Guiver BEM and Tony Sexton (above) with National Memorial Arboretum Head of Estates Andy Ansell.
As we enter the final phase of the project, the bronze monument is complete. It has been shipped from the foundry in California and is now securely stored in the UK, ready for installation.
We have achieved so much, but we still need one last push to bring the project over the finish line.
We now need to pay the National Memorial Arboretum for the groundwork, footings and granite plinth. There is also a significant insurance and maintenance bond to cover, along with the costs of the dedication event itself.
