 After a very successful and decorated career in the British army from boy soldier to high-ranking officer, Nik Chapman is involved in many local Norfolk charities and community projects using his leadership and management skills honed in war zones and industry.

Among these many current roles, Nik volunteers with the Commonwealth War Graves Commission and will take us through the history of the Commission from creation and controversy to its current world-wide role.  In the third week he will lead a field study at Earlham Cemetery to examine the local examples.
