We are proud to highlight the work of TPN Partner, Big G Logistics, who are currently transporting The Longest Yarn exhibition across the UK. This unique project combines creativity, community, and commemoration in a way that has captured the attention of thousands.
The Longest Yarn is a non-profit initiative that uses knitting and crochet to tell the story of World War II. Its flagship installation, The Longest Day, stretches 80 metres, with each metre representing one of the 80 days of the Battle of Normandy. Volunteers from around the world have contributed to the project, carefully recreating uniforms, vehicles, and battle scenes in yarn. The result is a powerful, tactile artwork that brings history to life while honouring those who served.
The exhibition has already been seen by more than 250,000 visitors and continues to travel internationally. Its impact goes beyond remembrance: schools, families, and veterans have engaged with the project, finding it both educational and therapeutic. Donations collected during the tour support veterans and ensure the continuation of this remarkable work.
Transporting such a large and delicate exhibition requires expertise and care. Big G’s role is vital in ensuring that The Longest Yarn reaches communities across the UK safely and on schedule. Their involvement demonstrates not only logistical excellence but also a commitment to preserving heritage and supporting projects that inspire future generations.
We are delighted to celebrate their contribution to this extraordinary initiative. By helping The Longest Yarn reach audiences nationwide, they are playing a part in keeping history alive, stitch by stitch.
