Remembrance 2023

Remembrance Parade 2023

The Council is pleased to report that the annual Remembrance Parade will be held on Sunday 12 November 2023.

The parade format will be the same as last year, travelling down the Lytchett Minster School driveway, arriving at the War Memorial at Lytchett Minster Church in time for 11 am.

The Council recognise that there will be some that will be disappointed that there will be no parade from Upton to Lytchett Minster on the public highway; however safety is of paramount importance for those parading, the public watching and the people managing the road closures. Alternative options were presented however none were deemed suitable.

We do hope that as many veterans, community groups and members of the public join us on this special day to remember with pride the sacrifice of those who gave so much for the freedoms we enjoy today.

In due course, further details will be published about the specific timings for the day, and what the arrangements for those wishing to attend/participate will be. If you are a member of an organisation who would like to take part in the parade, please contact the Town Council via deputy@lytchettminsterandupton-tc.gov.uk or 01202 632070.
