About this event

Kesgrave Town Council will be hosting a Remembrance Service on Wednesday 11 November at Legion’s Green, Kesgrave, to mark Armistice Day and honour the men and women who lost their lives in service to their country.

About the service

The service will take place between 11:00am and 11:30am and formed part of the national act of remembrance observed across the United Kingdom each year on the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month.

At 11:00am, a two-minute silence will be observed in line with national tradition, allowing those present to reflect quietly and pay their respects.

Purpose of the event

Remembrance services provide an opportunity for communities to come together to remember the sacrifices made by members of the armed forces and civilians in conflicts past and present.

The Kesgrave service is a civic occasion, open to all, and reflects the town’s ongoing commitment to remembrance, respect, and reflection.
