Remembrance Sunday Services

Saturday, 19 November 2011


As usual the Droylsden parade and service was well attended with seemingly more people turning out than last year. What was especially noticeable were the large numbers of young people in attendance. 

If ever there was a time to recognise the fact that so many people have laid down their lives to protect our democratic freedoms - it is now.  



That’s what made the Littlemoss service (above) so special.  

Inscribed on the new memorial are the names of the fallen from the 14-18 war - however the fact that they are still commemorated by Droylsden residents nearly a century since their deaths signifies the special place our armed services have in our town.  

We will remember them
