Story
Many local heroes lost their lives fighting for our country in order for us to live in peace. Traditionally we honoured our fallen in style, with a pipe band and procession but unfortunately post covid and due to the disbanding of our local British Legion branch this has now diminished to a few people meeting at the cenotaph for prayers and to pay their respects..
We want to revamp the procession, including a band, and once again remember our brave fallen in the way they deserve.
Please help us to raise money to pay for the band, road closures and necessary certificates and insurance, and food after at the Brass Band Club. Every little counts and is much appreciated.

4 months agoHi Firstly I would like to thank you for all the support and donations so far. We have managed to fund the Pipe Band, Road closure certificates, Road closure team and the necessary liability insurance. We have arranged and funded the food on the day. What we need to do now is ensure we can continue this for the future so we can continue to honour our heroes who gave their lives for the freedom we enjoy today. Please, if you can, no matter how small, donate to this cause and spread the word. Thank You The Remembrance Day Committee xx
