Every year on Remembrance Sunday, we hold an Act of Remembrance for those from our village who fought and died in the two World Wars (1914-18 and 1939-45).
In 2020, because of Covid19 restrictions which prevented us from meeting in church, we held the service at the War Memorial which stands at the edge of the village. We did this again in 2021 and 2022 and it has now become the norm. The short service is held at 9:30am. Everyone is welcome, though we do remind people to take special care – the road by the War Memorial is busy.
Each year, we send a donation to the Royal British Legion and we would be happy if you would join us in this.
