The Dundee community will come together on Sunday, November 15, to remember and honour those who lost their lives in times of war during the annual Memorial Sunday remembrance parade.

The service, organised by the local MOTH (Memorable Order of Tin Hats), will take place at the Dundee War Memorial in Victoria Street, with proceedings starting at 10:45.

Under the message Respect, Reflect, Remember, the gathering will provide an opportunity for residents to pause and pay their respects to the men and women from Dundee and the surrounding district who made the ultimate sacrifice in serving their country.

Wreaths will be laid by representatives of the Armed Forces, South African Police Service, local civic organisations and descendants of those whose names appear on the memorial.

Honouring their sacrifice

Organisers are inviting the public to attend and take part in the commemoration.

“People around the world will pause and remember. We will do the same,” reads the invitation.

Anyone wishing to lay a wreath is asked to contact Pam McFadden via WhatsApp on 079 490 5933.

Following the service, eats and refreshments will be served at the MOTH Shellhole. An honesty box will be available to raise funds for MOTH projects, and a cash bar will also be open.
