Rembrance Sunday 2023

The Remembrance Sunday Parade and Service is taking place on Sunday 12th November. The Parade, led by the Acceler8Band, will set off from the Health Centre car park at 9.30am (please arrive by 9.15am), parading around the route and arriving at St. Luke’s Church in time for the service at 10am. Please be aware that there will be a rolling road closure for the duration of the parade. However, London Road will be closed from 9am – 12 noon. Following the wreath laying in the churchyard just after 11am, the parade will then march back to the Health Centre. The Parish Council would like to thank all those involved in organising the Remembrance Sunday Commemorations and those who have taken the time to create such beautiful poignant displays. Your hard work and careful preparation is greatly appreciated. "They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old: Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn. At the going down of the sun and in the morning We will remember them." Extract from the poem 'The Fallen' by Robert Laurence Binyon
