On Sunday 11 November, I attended a poignant and moving Remembrance Day service at Walton war memorial. I was honoured to lay the first wreath at the service marking 100 years since the end of World War One. The inspiring occasion saw local Cadets, Scouts and Brownies, together with veterans and around 2,000 local people. It was a fitting tribute to the local residents who have fallen in the service of their country, and the sacrifices made by people right across the UK throughout our history. I was honoured to be part of the commemoration.
My thanks to Walton Churches Together, Joanna Gordon and the Walton on Thames Trading Alliance (WoTTA) team and the Royal British Legion for organising such a memorable day. You can see more photos of the event on WoTTA’s website here.
