Notice Information

Notice Title

2015 Sousse & Bardo Memorial - Design Competition

Notice Description

Shortly after the Sousse attack, a Ministerial Committee was established to coordinate the Government's response and provision of support to bereaved families and victims. The creation of a permanent memorial commemorating the British victims of these two terrorist attacks was proposed: The 2015 Sousse and Bardo Memorial. The Foreign & Commonwealth Office (FCO) was tasked to lead the process of commissioning and installing a memorial to the victims of these terrible attacks. In 2016, a consultation was held with the British families affected by the two attacks to allow them to have a say on the preferred location for the Memorial. With the affected families spread across the length and breadth of the United Kingdom, Cannon Hill Park in Birmingham was chosen as the site which came closest to meeting the views expressed by the families on location and accessibility. The affected families were also consulted on the style and setting of the Memorial. Their views have been incorporated into the brief and we envisage a further consultation on the shortlisted designs.
