Description
War Memorial - Canadian Service Men & Women is a unique memorial to Canadian soldiers stationed in Worthing during World War II.
It is specifically dedicated to the participants of the failed Dieppe raid of August 1942, from which many of the soldiers who sailed from Sussex ports never returned.
The memorial, designed by Chris Vowles and unveiled in 2013, consists of a glass plaque placed on a concrete pedestal. It hosts annual memorial ceremonies, often attended by Canadian and local government officials.
