See Below Quote from The Chairman Of the Royal British Legion Bury St. Edmunds regarding the Remembrance Services held On The 7th And 8th November 2020.
‘ Remembrance Services held on Saturday 7th November in the Appleby Rose Garden together with the service conducted at The War Memorial, Angel Hill on Sunday 8th November proved to be exemplary examples of how, even in the direst of circumstances, the support for such ceremonies is never diminished. There are very few occasions when we, as a country, have the opportunity to unite and come together for the purpose of celebrating a just and honorable cause. Although both ceremonies were, to a large extent. regulated by the national restrictions in place, it did not detract from the tangible support, solemnity, and heartfelt thanks of all those present to those who made the ultimate sacrifice for their country. We are delighted with the support and encouragement given and shown during both ceremonies.’
