Remembrance 2024

Sadly, this year I have been unable to attend the annual Service of Remembrance which takes place in our beautiful Queen's Park, under the watchful gaze of our wonderful war memorial, the Carillon. It's always a poignant service, and serves to remind us all of who we lost so we can be here today, and to remind us to look after each other, now and in the future

I visited the park earlier in the week, and was truly amazed by the fantastic poppy display that rose up from the ground, and swirled around the trunk of a tree that lines that path to the Carillon! Members of the Loughborough in Bloom group, aided by many individuals and volunteer groups, created the 6,500 poppies that make up the display!
