The city of Salisbury is set to remember those who made the ultimate sacrifice for their country at its Annual Remembrance Sunday Service at the War Memorial in Salisbury Market Place on Sunday 14th November at 11am.
The ceremony will be led by the Salisbury Branch of the Royal British Legion and supported by Salisbury City Council.
Everyone will gather at the War Memorial for a 2 minute silence at 11am followed by prayers.
