Public invited to Wrexham’s Armistice day and Annual Service of Remembrance commemorations

Members of the public are being invited to pay their respects at Wrexham’s Armistice day and Annual Service of Remembrance commemorations.

This year Armistice Day will be remembered on Saturday, November 11 on Queen’s Square.

An air air raid siren will be sounded for this event at 11am.

This year’s Annual Service of Remembrance will take place at Bodhyfryd on Sunday, November 12 starting at 10.55am.

At 10:59am, a bugler will sound the “Last Post” and the two minute silence will be observed.

Members of the public are being invited to attend this very poignant event to remember those who fought and lost their lives during WW1, WW2 and subsequent conflicts.

The public are advised that barriers will be put in place at 10:30am at the following locations to allow the parade to pass safely and to secure the surrounding area:

• Chester Street (adjacent to the former Feathers pub)
• Holt Street (by the Welch Fusilier pub)
• Chester Road (near the Chester Road/Powell Road roundabout)

Access to the Bodhyfryd Car Park adjacent to Waterworld will therefore be available only until 10.30am.

Facilities will be available for elderly, infirm or disabled persons to follow the service from inside the Memorial Hall.

Members of the public are encouraged to attend one or both memorials.
