Flag Commemoration: Friday 7th November

Written by admin. Posted in General

The Commemoration will be held at the Brighton General Cemetery on the paved area outside the Office at 9.30 for a 10am start.  Marking Remembrance week, the flags will be flying until the 17th November. This is the eighth in a series of 50 graves to have a flag flying to honour our Service Persons for their sacrifice for King and Country. With 400 flags flying it is going to be an amazing sight.
