Aksa Homes are developing new social housing close to the Warth Mills site. The project has partnered with Aksa and Scartworks to create a permanent memorial honouring the internees locked away at Warth Mills in the Summer of 1940 – in particular the Italian men killed on the SS Arandora Star while being transported from Bury to Canada.
The memorial will be presented at a small unveiling ceremony with invited guests, friends of the project and future residents.
The event is also open to the public – tickets not necessary.
