Remembrance

Each year, we encourage the nation to come together to honour and remember the sacrifices made by the Armed Forces community.

As the nation’s champion of Remembrance we are responsible for ensuring that Remembrance is understood, available to all, and passed on to future generations.

The Act of Remembrance is a deeply personal act available to everyone. It acknowledges the service and sacrifice of the Armed Forces and their families, across all conflicts. The physical representation of our collective Remembrance is the Poppy, a symbol of hope for a peaceful future. There are no restrictions on when or how you remember.

The Royal British Legion is asking for communities across Britain to 'Remember Together' the service and sacrifice, friendship and collaboration of the men and women of Britain, the Commonwealth and Allied nations who fought together in 1944.
