The service was organised by the Lisburn branch of the Royal British Legion to remember and honour the sacrifices of all those who gave their lives in defence of their country.

A well-attended parade and solemn act of remembrance was also held in Hillsborough.

The parade formed at Hillsborough Presbyterian Church car park before making its way to the war memorial for the morning service, act of remembrance and wreath laying. The parade then moved off up to The Square, back down Main Street, and into St Malachi’s Parish Church. After the service, the parade returned to the Presbyterian church to dismiss.

The event was organised by the Royal Hillsborough branch of the Royal British Legion.
