Step 3: Find a Contractor

Selecting the right person to work on your war memorial is important in many ways - you want to be confident they will undertake the works appropriately and respectfully. But you will also be keen to ensure it is competitively priced and, if applying for a grant, in-line with WMT's requirements.

You should read step 3 and step 4 together as they are closely connected. 

Step 3 provides advice on finding an appropriate contractor to support your project, and if appropriate a conservation-accredited professional advisor.  Step 4 discusses what you need to ask them for.
