Rememberance Sunday

This afternoon the Town came together at 2.30pm to remember those lost in Wars around the World.

The parade headed off from the seafront, headed by the Ringwood Pipe Band, Veterans, Councillors, Fire, Coastguard, Ambulance, British Red Cross, St John Ambulance, Air Cadets to name a few...oh and not forgetting 150 soldiers from Blandford!

Around to St Marys for a church service and then up to War Memorial to lay the wreaths.

Finally tea and buns up at the British Legion. Today we were joined John Bentham in the church and the Legion - John is still on the mend slowly but it was super to have him there in uniform and a great boost for him.
