Armistice Day and Remembrance Sunday commemorations will take place in Wanstead this month.
Residents are invited to a service at the Snaresbrook Garden of Remembrance on 11 November (arrive by 10.45am). This will be followed by a gathering at the Wanstead War Memorial on 14 November (arrive by 12.15pm).
“From the hymns and wreath-laying through to the sounding of the last post by a lone bugler, I am always struck by the solemnity and peacefulness of both occasions,” said organiser Colin Cronin.
