REMEMBRANCE DAY IN SADDLEWORTH

REMEMBRANCE DAY IN SADDLEWORTH

Dear residents. 

Today, on Remembrance Sunday, your local Saddleworth & Lees Neighbourhood Policing Team were proud and privileged to play a part in the morning's parades, services and acts of remembrance across our communities.

We joined residents, veterans, serving personnel, local organisations and faith groups to honour the courage, sacrifice and service of those who gave so much for our freedoms.

Wreaths were laid on behalf of the team at the following locations:

Holy Trinity Church, Dobcross
Wreath laid by PS Andy Holian in the company of PCSO Mike Lowther

Pots and Pans War Memorial
Wreath laid by PC James Peddar in the company of PCSO Wayne Turley

Lees Cemetery War Memorial
Wreath laid by PC Louie Cocks

Austerlands Cenotaph
Wreath laid by PCSO Mark Detheridge

We would like to thank all organisers, volunteers, veterans, cadets, clergy and community groups who helped make today's commemorations so meaningful and respectful. It was an honour to stand alongside our communities in remembrance.

As we pause to reflect, we remember all those who have served and those who continue to serve today.

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:

Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.

At the going down of the sun and in the morning

We will remember them.

Best regards. 

PS 1650 Andy Holian

Saddleworth & Lees Neighbourhood Sergeant.
