National Service of Remembrance taking place this weekend

The Island will fall silent this weekend to remember the sacrifices made by those who have served in the armed forces. 

The nation will observe a two minute silence at 11am tomorrow, and again on Sunday, with wreaths and poppies laid at war memorials across the Island.

There will be a National Service of Remembrance at the Royal Chapel in St John's at 3pm on Sunday, attended by veterans and representatives of the armed forces.

This will be followed by a gathering at the National War Memorial at 4pm.
