During the Illuminating York Festival 2012, a short film capturing the stories of York-based or linked armed forces personnel, their families and local communities will be screened in St Helen’s Square.

The film has been produced as part of the York Stories 2012 project which celebrates York 800 by recording and sharing local people’ stories, and has been funded by the Community Covenant Grant and City of York Council with the aim of building bridges between the armed forces and local communities.

The film will be screened every night from October 31 – November 3 between 6:30pm and 9:30pm on a mobile screen.
