Remembrance Day was back to normal this year and we were delighted to see a large crowd to join in this act of remembrance.
We commemorated the end of the Great War and those brave men and women from across Surrey who, in two World Wars and subsequent conflicts, gave their lives for those freedoms we enjoy today. After the service, two minute silence and laying of wreaths, the Oatlands Pipe Band lead our parade down New Zealand Avenue, through the Heart and up into the High Street. Check out the images below to see how brilliantly our town came together to mark this historic occasion. Download the Order of Service. We'd like to thank the team from Wotta (all volunteer local residents) who helped organise the smooth running of the event as well as all participants. |
