At the service, conducted by the Branch’s president and padre, two wreaths will be laid - one from the British Legion and one from the children of Great Harwood. After the service everyone will be invited to parade down Church Street to Towngate, singing war-time songs and this will be a themed event with members of the public being encouraged to dress in clothes of the period. All residents are invited to take this opportunity and take part in this Great Harwood commemorative event.
Following the parade to Towngate, the Civic Society’s annual Charity Market will take place on the Square where local voluntary, community and faith groups will be trying to raise money for their worthwhile organisations. Please come along and support them, giving encouragement to those volunteers that greatly enrich our lives in Great Harwood.
Groups will set up their stalls in time for the Town Crier to open the Fair/Market as close to 12.00noon as possible.
