Remembrance Day

Remembrance Day

Published 4 November 2020

The Parish Council has been notified by the National Association of Local Councils that, although Church Services cannot take place:

‘The government has stated through various communication channels that outdoor Remembrance Sunday services at war memorials and local cenotaphs can still take place, but they should be reduced in size and observe strict social distancing’

Remembrance Sunday is on the 8th.

There is no mention of what can be done on the 11th, so the Parish Council suggests that those who wish to pay their respects and lay wreaths congregate informally in a socially distanced way at the War Memorial at 10.45am on Sunday. The wreaths can be laid and the two minute’s silence observed at 11am.
