A number of memorial events are set to be held across Renfrewshire and East Renfrewshire to mark Remembrance Sunday.
Hundreds of people are expected to turn out to pay their respects to the fallen as parades take place in towns and villages. The first of the November 12 parades will get underway in Elderslie at 9.45am, with a similar event in Houston at 10am.
“It’s so important that we pay our respects to those who have given the ultimate sacrifice and I look forward to the community once again coming together to show their gratitude for all that have gone before us.” Powered by the Paisley Daily Express, Renfrewshire Live is your go-to source for news, features and sport with live coverage provided direct to the app, seven days a week.
The first event is at the war memorial beside Mearns Bowling Club, Ayr Road, Newton Mearns, where a parade will muster by 10.40am. It will then march off from Fairweather Hall at 10.50am to reach the memorial for an 11am service. Tea and coffee will be available afterwards in the hall at St Thomas’ Church and anyone who would like to attend is asked to send an email to paul.o’[email protected]
