BLUE PLAQUE FOR FABIAN WARE

I have just heard that Sir Fabian Ware, Founder of the Imperial War Graves Commission and the central figure in my radio play MEMORIALS TO THE MISSING is to get a Blue Plaque on the house he lived in Marylebone between 1911 and 1919. I proposed him for commemoration at the time of my play, saying that a man who did so much to create memorials to others deserved one of his own. I'm delighted that the Blue Plaques Panel has agreed with me. The ceremony is scheduled for 2014.
