Its world-class collections cover everything from the iconic redcoats of the 19th century to the unique robes of Lawrence of Arabia.

On this British Sign Language guided tour, Edward Richards will highlight key aspects of the Army’s history, from its formation in the 1600s and its defining impact on the continent of Europe to the bravery and sacrifice of its soldiers during the First and Second World Wars.
