The Royal British Legion is recognised as the national custodian of Remembrance.

Remembrance Sunday, the second Sunday in November, is the day traditionally put aside to remember all those who have given their lives for the peace and freedom we enjoy today.

View our News & Events calendar for details of local Remembrance events.

The Remembrance Service is held at the Memorial at Cappel´s Friedhof.

Where at the 11th hour a short service is given followed by´the Flowers of the Forrest´played by Glenn MacDonald on his Bagpipes. 

Once the Service is concluded, the DGH (Village Hall) is open for refreshments after what is traditionally a rather cold and wet morning in November.
