Today we remember those who died in military service to bring freedom and stability to our country. The Anglican Church follows the Sunday closest to 11th November, remembering particularly those died in World War One and World War Two but those in subsequent wars and involvements as recently as Afghanistan and Iraq.
Our services, as in each Remembrance Sunday, will include an Act of Remembrance which includes a minute's silence.
