Darwen cemetery doubles up for Remembrance services
8:00pm Tuesday 2nd October 2012 in News
TWO Remembrance services will take place at Darwen’s Western Cemetery this year.
The first service will be held for local school pupils, and will be at the Cross of Sacrifice in the cemetery off Cemetery Road.
Last year more than 80 pupils and students attended the Friends of Darwen Cemetery Remembrance Service, and they helped place Remembrance crosses on the 97 war graves in both the Eastern and Western Cemeteries.
The date for this year’s service has not yet been confirmed, but will be either Thursday, November 8 or Friday, November 9, from 10.45am.
The second Remembrance Service is to be held on Sunday, November 11 at 10.45am. This service will be for the local residents and scout groups.

personally I would like to see Remembrance sunday or at least the 11th November made a public holiday. With respect given by closing all shops, supermarkets, and the day being marked properly.
