🕝 2.30pm – The parade assembles in the Royal British Legion car park.

🥁 2.40pm – Led by the Wessex Marching Band, the parade marches to Wimborne Minster, Church of St Cuthburga, for the service at 3pm.

🕝 Approximately 3.40pm – Wreath-laying at the War Memorial.

The parade will then march back to the Royal British Legion car park, passing the saluting dais where the salute will be taken. The parade will be dismissed, and everyone is welcome to join the Royal British Legion in the hall for tea and biscuits.

We hope you will join us to pay your respects and remember those who gave so much.

Lest we forget. 🌺
