Please attend on Saturday September 19th
The people of Brentford, Julia Quilliam, the Brentford High Street Steering Group & Brentford Chamber of Commerce have been working with Hounslow Council to relocate the First World War Memorial stone to be outside Brentford Library with the other memorial stones and the cenotaph (previously the stone was located at St Lawrence’s Church which is now closed). After the Council received permission from the Secretary of State, and local people secured funding from Hounslow Council this locally driven project has been put into action. Brentford British Legion are also using their funding to support the event
To mark the event a Rededication Service will be held on Saturday 19th September and all are invited to come along;
They will be joined on the march by the Mayor of Hounslow, Cllr Paul Lynch, the Mayoress, the Mayor’s Mace Bearer, the Deputy Mayor & Consort and the Reverend Derek Simpson.
All are encouraged to line the route to watch the parade.

The Forces, the Mayor, local Councillors, the Police, and local organisations & people will lay a wreath at the memorial to commemorate those that gave their life in the First World War.
Do come along, watch the parade and attend the outdoor service, all are very welcome.
