The main borough service was held at the Memorial Gardens in Argents Mead, Hinckley, attracting hundreds of attendees for a solemn act of remembrance. The service was led by the Vicar of St Mary's Church, Reverend Ian Hill, and featured contributions from local clergy, the Royal British Legion, veterans' groups, civic leaders, members of the armed forces community, and young people from guiding, scouting, and cadet organisations.
During the ceremony, wreaths were laid at the war memorial, and attendees observed the traditional two-minute silence, paying tribute to servicemen and women, past and present. Similar remembrance services and parades were conducted in towns and villages throughout the borough, uniting communities in honouring local service personnel and remembering those lost in conflict.
“"Remembrance Sunday is always a deeply poignant occasion, and it was an honour to represent the borough at this year's service. It was heartening to see so many veterans, serving personnel, uniformed organisations and members of the public united in remembering those who have served our country and those who gave their lives for our freedom."
The annual services underscored the borough's enduring tradition of remembrance and gratitude towards those who have served the nation.
