Remembrance Day parades and services will be taking place across the district to commemorate the soldiers, sailors and airmen killed and injured in the two World Wars and all conflicts since then.

On Sunday 9 November at 1.30pm, the Chair, Councillor Mike Crane and his consort, will be attending the RAF Kenley Tribute at the Kenley Airfield.

Councillors will represent the Chair at church services across the district which are listed on our website. To help accommodate the parades, there will be road closures in some parts of the district.

Chair of the Council, Councillor Mike Crane, said: “I’m honoured to represent the Council in remembering all those who have served and those who gave their lives in conflict. Across our district there are many opportunities for residents to come together, reflect and pay tribute to those who made the ultimate sacrifice for our country.

Please do buy a poppy as your support helps veterans, serving members of the Armed Forces and their families.”

Residents are also invited to join the Vice chair of the Council, Councillor Deb Shiner, the Royal British Legion, council officers and councillors, outside the main entrance to the Council Offices on Tuesday 11 November to observe a two-minute silence.

Poppies are available at the Council Office reception.
