Bermuda represented at London Remembrance Day service
Bermuda has been represented at a Remembrance Day ceremony in London this morning.
Kimberley Durrant, the Government's London Office director and UK representative, laid a wreath at the Cenotaph in the British capital on behalf of the island.
The ceremony — held every year to recognise those who fought and died in military conflicts — is a central event in Britain’s national service of remembrance and underscores the gratitude and respect for those who have given their lives in service to their country.
Today's ceremony in London was led by King Charles and other members of the Royal Family, along with war veterans and serving members of the armed forces.
Bermuda will mark the event tomorrow, November 11 — the anniversary of the end of the First World War in 1918.
The ceremony, held at the Cenotaph on Front Street from 10.30am, will be led by the Governor, Rena Lalgie, Premier David Burt, and other dignitaries.
The Royal Bermuda Regiment will support the ceremony, joined by the Bermuda Police Service, Sea Cadets and the Junior Leaders.
The regiment’s Band and Corps of Drums, the Somerset Brigade Band, the Salvation Army Band, the North Village Band and the Bermuda Islands Pipe Band will also participate.
