Media and Press Enquiries

Information Available
The Association publishes a Newsletter for the membership 3 times each year and copies of recent editions are available to journalists or other media personnel, on request. If preferred, electronic version(s) are available and will be provided should hard copies no longer be held. An archive of all Newsletters published since the first one, in 2001, is also maintained.

A photographic archive is currently being developed comprising images taken in recent years at Association events together with a more limited number of period photographs of personnel, aircraft and operations from the wartime years. Records detailing the airmen in each crew and every aircraft used by the Squadrons, day-by-day throughout World War II, as well as information on every sortie undertaken, training and officer postings, are also held.

Media Coverage to Date
During the first 40 years, or so, of its existence, the Association has regularly fearured in local Lincolnshire print media. In 2019, a slightly more pro-active approach was taken, with preparation of a formal Media Release, ahead of the Annual Reunion. This resulted in an approach from the BBC for more information and a news item appearing on the BBC Humberside Website.

Subsequently, 'Memorial Flight' (journal of the Lincolnshire Lancaster Association**) published a comprehensive article about our Reunion Weekend and the history of Elsham Wolds.

** The Lincolnshire Lancaster Association holds a unique position as a charity that supports the RAF Battle of Britain Memorial Flight.
