Poignant Ceremony For Remembrance Sunday
Written by HFM News on 9th November 2020
Wreaths were laid on the War Memorial in Market Harborough yesterday to mark Remembrance Sunday.
The event wasn’t publicised, although a number of people who were in the town centre at the time, watched as representatives of the town’s forces organisations and dignitaries, took part in the short socially-distanced ceremony.
The NHS Track & Trace system was also in operation, with those attending having their details taken, or asked to use a QR code.
John Morley, President of the Market Harborough branch of the Royal British Legion, was one of those there:
