Brownhills always puts on a sombre, dignified event. Local children paid their respects in 2015, as captured by the good folk of St. James Church.
This is just a quick request for help – in past years, we have crowdsourced from readers a list of local Remembrance parades and events taking place throughout the area, that was popular and useful to many of the readership.
I’d like to match last year’s list if I can.
Despite rumours to the contrary, there are still a huge range of local services taking place, although some parades may be changed a little due to well-publiscised policing issues.
If you contribute details I’ll wrap them all up into a big post later in the week before Remembrance Sunday.
If you can supply details for any local event in Walsall or South Staffordshire, please comment here or mail me. I know people tend to travel to their home Remembrance event, and we have a wide audience, so stuff in the wider area is very much welcome.
Thanks to Ray Smythe I already have details for Heath Hayes and Wimblebury, and I believe Russell Smith has published details for Aldridge today. Any help is welcome.
I’d also like readers to take photos of their local events if they can and I’ll feature them here; particularly after photos of Brownhills, Walsall Wood and Norton if possible.
If you’d rather, feel free to mail me: BrownhillsBob at Googlemail dot com. Cheers.
