Remembrance Sunday - 9th November 2014

Hyndburn Borough Council is pleased to support the Royal British Legion and invite residents to the Remembrance Sunday events on Sunday, 9th November 2014.  Services and parades will take place in each township in Hyndburn to remember all those who have fought and given their lives for peace and freedom.  Details of these events can be found on the Council’s website www.hyndburnbc.gov.uk .

At 11am on Tuesday the 11th November, Armistice Day, the nation will pause for two minutes to reflect on the sacrifices of our service men and women from conflicts past and present.

Members of the public are invited to join the Mayor, the Royal British Legion and Council members outside the Town Hall at 11 a.m. to mark the silence.

The start and finish of the two minutes silence will be marked by a maroon flare.
