Wrexham will mark Armistice Day and Remembrance Sunday this week with services remembering those who have lost their lives at war.
Armistice Day will be remembered on Friday, November 11 on Queen’s Square and the air raid siren will be sounded for this event at 11am.
This year’s Annual Service of Remembrance will take place at Bodhyfryd on Sunday, November 13 starting at 10.55am.
At 10.59 a bugler will sound the “Last Post” and the two minute silence will be observed.
The public are invited to attend this very poignant event to remember those who fought and lost their lives during WW1, WW2 and subsequent conflicts.

People are advised that barriers will be put in place at 10.30am at the following locations to allow the parade to pass safely and to secure the surrounding area:
• Chester Street (adjacent to the former Feathers pub)
• Holt Street (by the Welch Fusilier pub)
• Chester Road (near the Chester Road/Powell Road roundabout)
Access to the Bodhyfryd Car Park adjacent to Waterworld will therefore be available only until 10.30am.
Facilities will be available for elderly, infirm or disabled persons to follow the service from inside the Memorial Hall.
Members of the public are encouraged to attend one or both memorials.
