About This Event

In 2026, we’re marking 60 years since Chartwell opened to the public on 22 June 1966. From May to July, join us in celebrating the many personal stories that have shaped Chartwell over the decades. We’re inviting you, our visitors, to share the moments, big or small, that have made Chartwell meaningful to you. We’ll be gathering your memories to form a special outdoor display for everyone to enjoy at the end of the summer. Return to Chartwell in September to discover the visitors’ stories woven into our shared history. Will one of your favourite memories be chosen? There are several ways to share your favourite Chartwell memory, and you can take part in as many as you would like: - Write a postcard and post it into one of our memory post boxes. From 8th May. - Share a photo on social media and tag our official accounts. - Submit your memory online via our dedicated online survey.

Your memories will help create a heartfelt tribute to Chartwell’s past and the people who keep its story alive. You do not need to pre-book for this event.
