Whilst the primary route of the Help for Heroes 4x4 European Rally follows the path of the Allied Invasion of 1944/5, it also traverses elements of WWI, and in particular The Somme.

Those taking part in the rally may pass the village mentioned in the above link on 21st June 2011! We felt it useful to bring the information to your attention as further background for the journey that lies ahead.
