Remembrance

Remembrance honours those who serve to defend our democratic freedoms and way of life. We unite across faiths, cultures and backgrounds to remember the service and sacrifice of the Armed Forces community from Britain and the Commonwealth.

What we're remembering this year

In 2020 we’re paying tribute to the men and women of the Second World War generation from Britain, the Commonwealth and Allied nations who came home and rebuilt our world at the end of WW2. We will celebrate the peace that reunited them, and the democracy and freedoms they secured for us.
