Photos of Remembrance Sunday service and parade in Chatteris

The parade was led by March ATC 1220 Squadron, joined by members of the Chatteris Royal British Legion, town and Fenland district councillors, and representatives from many local clubs, groups, and organisations.

Youth organisations were especially well represented, with Brownies, Rainbows, Scouts, pre-schools, and local sports clubs all taking part.

Together they marched through the town to the War Memorial, where wreaths were laid in honour of the fallen.

The fine weather encouraged residents to line the streets along the parade route and gather at the War Memorial, ensuring a strong and respectful presence.

Over 100 people then attended the church service, which followed.

The service included music from the Manea and Chatteris Silver Band, a bugler sounding the Last Post, and two performances by the Chatteris Community Choir,   

The visiting Deputy Lieutenant, Mr Francis Burkitt, expressed his admiration for the event, noting that he was very impressed with the organisation and the spirit of the day.

Tina Prior, of Chatteris RBL, said: "We would like to take this opportunity to thank the community for their continued support.

"From the many residents who lined the streets, to the youth organisations, local groups, and volunteers who took part, the day was a true reflection of Chatteris coming together in remembrance.

"The Legion is deeply grateful for the respect, dignity, and unity shown across the town—and extends heartfelt thanks to everyone who donated to the Poppy Appeal."
