State of Mind would like to thank and remember all those who gave their lives in the armed forces
The Royal British Legion has always supported the traditional Remembrance Sunday services and the customary Two Minute Silence on that day. As the national custodian of Remembrance, the Legion also believes that when 11 November (Armistice Day) falls on days other than Sundays, Remembrance should be brought into the everyday life of the nation on those days as well.
In 2016 Armistice Day falls on the Friday before Remembrance Sunday.
The Royal British Legion will host it’s Silence in the Square event in Trafalgar Square, London to remember all those lost in conflict at 11.11.11 and will broadcast a live webcast from the event.
At the National Memorial Arboretum, Armistice Day will be commemorated with an outdoor service of Remembrance at the Armed Forces Memorial.
Local services are held throughout the UK, please check local newspapers for details
