<p>For the past four years of the First World War centenary, we have supported a number
of projects that have highlighted the contribution of the Chinese Labour Corps. We
supported the ‘Unremembered Project’, which recognised the contribution made by labour
corps from across Asia, Africa and the Caribbean, and this included a focus on the
Chinese Labour Corps. We also supported the Meridian Society to work in schools and
communities to highlight the almost 100,000 men recruited by Britain to provide essential
logistical support in Europe. Currently, we are also supporting the <a href="http://ensuringweremember.org.uk/"

in central London, to be unveiled in 2019. This memorial is backed by the Chinese
in Britain Forum and the Chinese embassy.</p>
