A day to remember
Services held across the town for Remembrance Sunday
It was a day to remember on Sunday, in services held across the town to commemorate lives lost during the two World Wars.
Two-minutes' silence were shared at 11am, in church services in Swindon and the surrounding area.
Memories for all:
Thousands lay their poppies in
thought
of the thousands who
fought for their country |
Events were attended by hundreds, and people have been wearing their poppies with pride in preparation for the annual event, to symbolise their thoughts for the thousands of soldiers who fought for their country.
And with the British Army's involvement in the Middle East in recent times, Sunday also offered an opportunity to remember those who have fought in conflicts since the World Wars, and in particular those who are fighting now.
