Reminder of Armistice Day and Remembrance Sunday commemorations in Droitwich this weekend

Tristan Harris 10th Nov, 2017   0

RESIDENTS and organisations will fall silent this weekend to remember all who have given their lives in two World Wars and other conflicts.

Tomorrow from 10.45am to mark Armistice Day there will be a short service at the Victoria Square memorial where two wreaths will be laid – one by Droitwich Royal British Legion and one by Droitwich Town Council.

Groups parading on Remembrance Sunday should muster at the pedestrian underpass by the police station at 10.15am, to move off at 10.30am.

The parade, commanded by Paul Wilde, will head to Victoria Square where there will be a service by The Rev Nigel Byard and music from the Salvation Army band.




After the Act of Remembrance the procession will head to St Andrews Church for the service at 11.30am.

The Rotary Club of Droitwich Spa is helping the British Legion with the Poppy Appeal collections and arrangements for the Remembrance Parade.
