Remembrance Sunday

Remembrance Sunday is a national opportunity to remember the service and sacrifice of all those that have defended our freedoms and protected our way of life.

We gather to remember the contribution of the service men, women and animals from Britain and the Commonwealth during the two world wars and later conflicts, the vital role played by the emergency services and those who have lost their lives as a result of conflict or terrorism.

Remembrance Sunday is always held on the Sunday closest to Armistice Day (11th November).  Armistice Day marks the signing of the Armistice between the Allies of World War I and Germany.  The Armistice was an agreement to end the fighting on the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month.

Please join us as we gather to pay our respects.  We gather from 2:30am SLT/10:30am GMT.  The two minute silence will be observed at 3:00am SLT/11:00am GMT.
