From HFWWPF: The Haringey First World War Peace Forum was a small working group in north London, researching the conscientious objectors who were associated with the districts of Hornsey, Tottenham and Wood Green (now comprising the London Borough of Haringey). The working group was set up in 2014 to contribute to the remembrance of the First World War and was formally wound up in October 2019.
