TWO-MINUTES silence will be held across Radcliffe at 11am tomorrow to remember the men and women who died at war and those who continue to fight.

It will be followed on Sunday by a parade, led by the Royal British Legion, and church services to mark Remembrance Day.

Representatives from many Radcliffe groups will assemble in the car park of the Last Orders pub in Water Street, from 10.15am, and march towards the town centre shortly before 11am. At the war memorial, the Last Post will be played and a two-minute silence observed before poppy wreaths are placed at the memorial.

The parade will then continue to St Thomas and St John Church, in Blackburn Street, where a service of remembrance will be held.

Afterwards, the parade will return to the Last Orders pub to stand down and refreshments will be served.
