The Year Was 1945, a series of exhibitions, events, services, talks and tours will open a window in time to 1945, sharing the stories of those who lived and served 80 years ago.

The National Memorial Arboretum in Staffordshire has been awarded its first-ever ‘National Plant Collection’ status by Plant Heritage, recognising its conservation work on the Hamamelis (Witch Hazel) and Amelanchier genera. This designation helps secure the future of these plants and enhances the Arboretum’s standing as a key centre of horticultural excellence and biodiversity.
Ideal for smaller groups, our personalised tours with an experienced guide make the perfect gift for loved ones.
Since our official opening 25 years ago our grounds have grown into an inspirational living landscape. Learn more about our history and pledges for the future.
