At 9.40am, the Mayor of Worcester, Cllr Mel Allcott, will lead a civic procession from the Guildhall to the Cathedral.

Cllr Allcott said: “Remembrance Sunday in Worcester is always a poignant occasion when we remember all those who have fallen in conflict in order that we have freedom.

“All Worcester residents are invited to pay their respects together at this important ceremony of remembrance.”
