A short service will be held to remember those who lost their lives in WW1. If taking apart please bring a candle.

Special Centenary Candles are available for local M&S stores with all the profits going to support serving members of the Armed Forces, veterans of all ages and their families.

This is part of a nationwide event being run by the RBL and is inviting everyone in the UK to turn off their lights from 10pm to 11pm, leaving on a single light or candle for this shared moment of reflection to mark the 100th anniversary of the date Great Britain entered the First World War.
