This year marks the 100th anniversary of the Act of Remembrance. Every year the nation unites to make sure that no-one is forgotten and to remember and honour those who have sacrificed themselves to secure and protect our freedom. Remembrance honours those who serve to defend our freedoms and way of life. Thousands of people will be taking part in services and acts of remembrance across Gloucestershire.

Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn. At the going down of the sun and in the morning We will remember them. From 'For the Fallen' - Laurence Binyon
