Sandy Marshall, Chair of EDLC Trust, added, "This year marks 100 years since the end of the First World War and this exhibition gives us a chance to commemorate the conflict and reflect on the devastating impact on communities.
"It is a great collaborative exhibition of some fascinating artefacts that will give people a real understanding of what life was like for those who were involved in the First World War at home and on the battlefront.
"I would urge residents to come along to the opening event as the visit of the re-enactment groups will help bring this period of history to life in a really fun way for all the family."
