The Codebreakers’ Wall is a specially reserved area in the grounds of Bletchley Park for veterans, their families and supporters of Bletchley Park to have their names engraved into a brick to share with loved ones for many years to come. A digital version of the wall is now available soon so you can search for names, locate bricks in the Codebreakers’ Wall and discover the stories behind the bricks. Go to www.bletchleypark.org.uk/codebreakers-wall to learn more.

The meeting was held against a background of both IARU Region 1 and EURAO having Letters of Understanding with CEPT, enabling participation in the work of CEPT. Both organisations accepted that they had shared objectives, identified some specific areas for inter-working and will continue a constructive dialogue into the future.
