Bucks Council to hold Remembrance Sunday service in Aylesbury

Buckinghamshire Council's Remembrance Sunday wreath-laying service will take place in Aylesbury's Market Square on 10 November 2024.

The event will start at 10:45am. 

Leading the service will be the Chairman of Buckinghamshire Council, Cllr Mimi Harker OBE, who emphasised the significance of the day:

"Remembrance Sunday is a poignant reminder of the bravery and dedication of our armed forces, as well as those who have fallen in defence of our country during past wars and conflicts. It is a time for us all to come together, reflect on their sacrifices, and honour their legacy. Their selfless dedication has preserved the values and freedoms we hold dear, and we will never forget. We invite everyone in our community to join us in this important observance."

Also attending the service will be the Vice Lord Lieutenant, Mayor of Aylesbury, MP Laura Kyrke-Smith, Honorary Recorder, 7 Rifles, 710 Squadron, HMS Wildfire Royal Navy, RAF Halton, Royal British Legion, Bucks Fire & Service, Thames Valley Police, as well as several other local organisations.

The service is being led by Father Doug Zimmerman with Mr Phil Turner, President of the Aylesbury branch of the Royal British Legion, and Aylesbury Sea & Royal Marine Cadet, First Class Ben Page, doing the Exhortation and Kohima epitaph. The Last Post will be played, then all attendees will observe a two-minute silence to honour the fallen, followed by the bugle call Reveille, familiar hymns and readings by other civic dignitaries.

Residents and visitors are warmly invited to attend this meaningful event and pay tribute to our fallen heroes.

In addition to the main service in Aylesbury, local events will be held across Buckinghamshire. For information on observances in your area, please check your local community website.
