LOCAL organisations, residents and visitors are invited to share in an act of remembrance in Lyme Regis on Sunday 14 November.
Lyme Regis will be paying its respects on Remembrance Sunday with a parade through the town and the laying of wreaths.
Due to the on-going precautions taken with Covid-19, the Parochial Church Council of St Michael's Parish Church have requested there should be no Remembrance Service inside the building this year.
A parade, organised by the Lyme Regis branch of the Royal British Legion (RBL), will leave Langmoor Gardens at 10.30am, and local organisations are invited to join the procession.
The parade will proceed along Bridge Street and Church Street, before assembling in Monmouth Street facing the war memorial.
The mayor of Lyme Regis, Cllr Brian Larcombe MBE, will lead the civic party to observe the parade in front of the Guildhall before processing to the war memorial.
The civic party will be joined by councillors and the Rev Sarah Godfrey.
At 10.54am, the Roll of Honour will be read by a representative of the president of the Lyme Regis branch of the RBL, followed at 10.58am by the reading of The Exhortation by a representative of the RBL.
The Last Post will sound before the two-minute silence at 11am.
The silence will be followed by the sounding of the Rouse and words from the Kohima epitaph will be spoken.
The mayor and the president of the RBL will lay wreaths at the war memorial and local organisations are also invited to lay wreaths while Lyme Regis Town Band plays.
The Rev Sarah Godfrey will lead the assembled in prayer, followed by the National Anthem.
The civic party will then return to the Guildhall and the parade will be dismissed in Monmouth Street.
