Remembrance Day

Remembrance Day is a memorial day observed in Commonwealth member states since the end of the First World War to honour armed forces members who have died in the line of duty.

Following a tradition inaugurated by King George V in 1919, the day is also marked by war remembrances in many non-Commonwealth countries.

This year as we draw closer to Remembrance Day, let us make sure we really do think of and remember those brave men and women who courageously sacrificed so much for our freedom.
