What is the Great War Group?

The Great War Group was founded as a non-profit, Foundation CIO to help promote education about, research into and commemoration of the First World War from 1914 to 1918.

 

Our approach is wide-ranging, considering all fronts, and all nations involved in the conflict. Membership fees provide exclusive content and a forum through which to engage on the conflict, and help to fund our charitable aims.

Director

Alexandra Churchill

Commander in Chief

After a boring former life working in marketing for bars and nightclubs, Alex is a full-time author and television historian specialising in WW1, military, royal and maritime history. When she is not writing about war, she takes the occasional small group to places like Jordan to follow in the footsteps of TE Lawrence.

Away from work, Alex loves to travel, her most surprising favourite destinations so far include Uganda and Wyoming. She is on a mission to visit all 50 states in the US and is now at 27. Her favourites are currently South Carolina and Texas.

Alex is also in charge of Salient Points, the GWG magazine
