Upchurch Poppy Day Appeal - 2015

“WE WILL REMEMBER THEM”

The total donations to the Royal British Legion from Upchurch will exceed £3,000 for the first time. Of this amount £733 was donated in business or retail outlets and the pupils and staff of Holywell School donated £260. The house-to-house Poppy Appeal collection was undertaken in all areas of the Parish by fourteen residents and eight Scouts.

The Church of St Mary the Virgin had a large congregation of all ages for the Remembrance Sunday service conducted by the Reverend Julian Staniforth aided by the Reverend Mark Ham. Wreaths were laid below the memorial tablet in the Lady Chapel on behalf of the Church, The Mayor of Swale, Upchurch Parish Council, the Upchurch Scouting movement and Upchurch Brownies. Following the laying of wreaths the Last Post was played and a two minute silence was observed. After the service in the church Reverend Staniforth led the choir, the uniformed youth organisations and the congregation in the warm autumnal weather to the burial ground where wooden remembrance crosses were laid at the five War Graves Commission headstones.

This year we remained mindful of the ultimate sacrifice made by those who fought in World War I and in subsequent conflicts to the present time.

On behalf of the Royal British Legion thank you for your generosity.
