An exhibition telling the lives and deaths of members of a church’s congregation who died in the Great War is set to reopen, it has been announced.

The three-week expanded exhibition will open again at 11.45am on April 19 at Wanstead United Reformed Church, in Nightingale Lane.

The exhibition, in partnership with Redbridge Museum and entitled Our 15: Remembered Lives, tells the story of the 15 names engraved on a stone plaque in the north aisle unveiled in 1921.

Supported by £10,000 Heritage Lottery funding, it was previously open from November 23 to December 5 last year.

This time, there will be a display of historic archive photographs showing Wanstead at the turn of the century.

Also, visitors are being invited to write the names of loved ones who have died in wars on paper poppies to be attached to a Wall of Remembrance in the church.

The exhibition will be open from April 19 to May 10 with opening times of 9.30am to 12pm Monday to Friday, and 11.30am to 4pm on Sundays.

Refreshments will be available for people who visit.
