Councillor Philip Sell said he attended the service at Lady Hawkins School s’ memorial on November 11.

He told councillors that the senior pupils played a large part in leading the service which was very moving and dignified.

He said after the service he spoke to the headteacher and some staff and pupils about replicating the event at the start of the town’s Armed Forces Day celebrations in June 2026.

Councillor Sell also attended the town Remembrance Day service at the Baptist Church and then joined the parade as it marched up to the war memorial
