About
Founded in 2005, Burma Star Memorial Fund is a charity based in Pewsey, United Kingdom working on heritage, education.
The Burma Star Memorial Fund is a registered charity established in 2005 to preserve the legacy of those who served in the Burma Campaign of the Second World War. Its work covers three areas: benevolence, providing continued support to qualifying veterans, often through partner organisations; remembrance, maintaining the Burma Star Memorial Grove at the National Memorial Arboretum in Staffordshire, developing a digital archive and a Burma collection; and legacy, funding a scholarship programme that creates a network of scholars from around the world. The Fund absorbed the Burma Star Association, founded in 1951 to relieve hardship among Burma Star holders and their dependants. It also promotes the lessons of the Burma Campaign and organises remembrance activities, and is based in Pewsey, Wiltshire, United Kingdom.
