Poppyscotland has launched a new digital tool for children to learn about the 75th anniversary of VE Day from their own homes.
The VE Day 75 resources contain interactive facts and stories about what was life was like for those living through the Second World War, with sections on evacuees, rationing and Churchill’s famous VE Day speech.
Scottish Government Minister for Children and Young People Maree Todd said: “Poppyscotland’s exceptional efforts during this difficult period will allow children throughout Scotland to continue to access these wonderful Second World War educational resources."
