2011 Remembrance Sunday at St Thomas'

Our curate, Ruth Turner, lead the 2010 Remembrance Service. It was attended by members of St Thomas', the local Brampton community, the Mayor and Mayoress of Chesterfield and a representive from the Police. Also on parade were the Scouts, Cubs and Beavers.

Ruth led a 'Remembering Activity'. We were invited to tie ribbons, representing the British servicemen who had died in Afganistan this year, on a wooden cross. We each then took a name of one those killed and read them out all together.

Matt gave a talk about being prepared to give to enhance peace. It involved camels.

The Act of Remembrance was held at 11am at the War Memorial. Wreaths were laid by the Mayor, Mayoress, the police, scouts and Chris McHale representing St Thomas'. Jade Collins played the 'Last Post' on her cornet.

The police again stopped the traffic on Chatsworth Road during the Act of Remembrance.
