Remembrance Sunday: We Will Remember Them
They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old: Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn. At the going down of the sun and in the morning, we will remember them.
Angus Provost Craig Fotheringham's Message
“This Remembrance Sunday (9 November), services and parades will take place across Angus, with wreath laying to honor those who gave their lives defending our freedoms.
Please, if you haven't planned to attend and are able, I encourage you to take some time to join your community at these important events and pay tribute to those who made the ultimate sacrifice.
If you cannot attend, I ask that you take a quiet moment alone or with loved ones to reflect and remember the fallen.”
Armistice Day Tribute
Tuesday, 11 November, is Armistice Day — another chance to pay respects. At 11 a.m., whether at home or work, stop what you are doing and observe two minutes of silence to honor the bravery and selflessness of our Armed Services.
“We must and will remember them.”
Support for Current Service Members
“I also want to thank the service men and women who continue to serve our country, both near and far. As they protect us, we must support them.”
These past years have shown increasingly uncertain times, with the harsh realities of war being shared across various media.
