In the charity's own words
The role of the charity is to raise funds through donations and its own fund raising activities to commission a lasting memorial at the National Memorial Arboretum in Staffordshire to honour those civilian entertainers who did so much to help the war effort by boosting morale both at home and abroad during World War two and to educate the public in the role that entertainment played in the war.
