Council marks Armistice Day with flag raising

Today, Waverley Borough Council marked Armistice Day with a flag-raising ceremony at The Burys in Godalming.

The Mayor Cllr David Munro and Deputy Mayor Cllr Penny Rivers, along with Councillors and staff gathered to pay tribute to the servicemen and women who have given their lives in conflict and to honour all those who have served and continue to serve in the Armed Forces.

The ceremony marked Armistice Day, commemorating the end of the First World War on 11 November 1918, and provided an opportunity to reflect on the courage, service and sacrifice of those who fought for the freedoms we enjoy today.

As communities across Waverley pause to remember, we honour their memory and reaffirm our commitment to ensuring their sacrifice is never forgotten.
