Two events are set to be held in Peterborough for Remembrance Sunday and Armistice Day to allow people to pay tribute to those who have lost their lives in war.
Peterborough City Council and the Peterborough Branch of the Royal British Legion are holding two events, in conjunction with one another, to commemorate both days.
A Remembrance Sunday service with wreath laying will take place at Peterborough War Memorial at 10:30am on Sunday, November 10.
An Armistice two-minute silence service will begin at 10:40am on Monday, November 11 at the War Memorial.
Members of the public can join both of the events at the War Memorial, or can watch them on a large screen in Cathedral Square. The wreath laying service and silence will also be streamed on Peterborough City Council's YouTube channel.
Cllr Marco Cereste, Mayor of Peterborough, said: "I would encourage everyone to come along to these poignant ceremonies as it is vitally important to remember those who have served for their country.
"Remembrance Day gives us all the chance to pay our respects to all those who have been killed or injured in the service of their country in conflicts both recent and in the past.
"I would also encourage people to support this year's Poppy Appeal. The purchasing and wearing of a poppy is a lovely way to remember those who lost their lives and it also supports the serving and former servicemen and women of today."
