The Class of 1914 at what was then Ulverston Victoria Grammar School sent off socks, sweets and letters of encouragement to former pupils on the front line. In return they received letters and photos from the men which give today's pupils a fascinating insight into the soldiers' lives. 
BBC Radio Cumbria's Furness reporter Jennie Dennett went to hear about one of the stars, former prefect Harvey Werry from Dalton.  Werry is also remembered by a Poppy Plaque on his former home on Myrtle Terrace. Tx Nov 10 2018.
