Said Haringey Mayor Cllr Alan Dobbie:
“Remembrance Day is an important opportunity for all of us, old and young, to remember all of those brave men and women who have given their lives in service, not only in the two World Wars, but also in the more recent conflicts which are continuing even today.
“I hope that people will wear their Poppies with pride, and take the opportunity to pause and reflect at 11 o’ clock on Remembrance Sunday, and Remembrance Day itself, and join us if they can at one of the services.”
