South Ayrshire Remembers - Remembrance Day 2022
People across South Ayrshire are preparing to remember the valiant efforts of the men and women who have fought and lost their lives since the First World War.
The 11 November 1918 witnessed a significant event, the signing of the Armistice which signalled the end of four years of gruelling conflict during the First World War - the first industrial war in modern history. This year, we pay tribute to those who dutifully sacrificed themselves to protect our freedom more than 100 years ago, whilst also honouring those in the Armed Forces and emergency services who continue to serve and protect our communities.
South Ayrshire Provost, Iain Campbell said: "Remembrance is an incredibly important occasion, and we should never forget the sacrifices made by the generations who fought in previous conflicts. Although it's now over 100 years since the end of the First World War, we still remember and the great symbol of Remembrance, the poppy, plays a vital role in this.
"Each year, the 11th November is a pertinent reminder to us all of the large sacrifices our country has made for our freedoms and I'm pleased that post-covid we can participate in Remembrance services as we knew them."
Services of Remembrance will be held between Friday 11 November - Sunday 13 November 2022 across South Ayrshire. A full list of locations is outlined below.
