       Remembrance Sunday, 8th November
       A  short  Service  of  Remembrance
       will be held at the War Memorial on
                 th
       Sunday  8   November,  when
       muffled  bells  will  be  tolled,  a  short
       service  held,  the  Silence  observed
       and wreaths laid by representatives
       of  the  community.  The  service  will
       be  preceded  by  a  parade  of  the
       Union Flag and wreath bearers from
       the  Scout  Hut  to  the  churchyard
       and  all  will  be  very  welcome  to
       stand on Manor Farm Road or West
       Street instead of joining the parade.

                                          Attendance  in  the  churchyard  will  be
                                          limited.  We  would  encourage  everyone
                                          who wishes to join in the commemoration
                                          to  do  so  from  home  or  in  the  street.  The
                                          Service and the timings will be published
                                          in the November Parish Magazine and on
                                          the  village  Facebook  page.  We  are
                                          hoping  to  provide  a  live  podcast  which
                                          parishioners can follow.

                                          Anyone who wishes to attend the service
                                          in person should contact Sandra Williams,
