Representatives from local organisations, veterans, youth groups, the church and the Parish Council will take part in the ceremony alongside residents wishing to pay their respects.
Traffic Management Arrangements
As in previous years, temporary traffic restrictions are required to ensure the safety of participants and those attending the service.
This year, trained Parish Council representatives and local volunteers will be assisting with traffic management and road closure points. We would like to thank them for giving their time to support this important community event.
We also thank residents, businesses and visitors for their patience and understanding while these arrangements are in place.
