At the end of 2014 I had a chat with Roger Hailwood, a volunteer at the National Memorial Arboretum. We chatted about his voluntary role(s) at the National Memorial Arboretum, what the National Memorial Arboretum is all about, why we should visit, and why he has been volunteering there for so many years.
