THIS year residents will be welcomed at Westbury’s Remembrance Day service on Sunday, November 14th after last year being advised to stay at home because of Covid restrictions.
A council spokesperson said, “Westbury will again fall quiet to remember those that have fallen, on Remembrance Sunday.
“Westbury Town Council and the Royal British Legion will mark the day with a Remembrance Service at the town war memorial. Those that wish to lay a wreath can contact the Royal British Legion about where to collect them before the service. Wreath-layers will be invited to pay their respects after the order of service has been read out by the town’s clergy and town mayor.
“The traditional singing of the national anthem will be accompanied by playing from the Trowbridge Youth Band. Residents are welcome to join. It will be a normal service with people just asked to respect others and give them space etc.”
Any queries about the Remembrance Service can be directed to events@ westburytowncouncil.gov.uk
The town council has applied for a temporary closure of the high street on the day.
