Every year on the Saturday of Remembrance weekend ,War Widows and their families gather at the Cenotaph to hold a very personal service of remembrance. The Service is conducted by the Chaplain to the Association; during the service the silence is observed and a simple tribute made of chrysanthemums, poppies and rosemary is laid in remembrance of fallen loved ones.
The tribute is in the shape of a cross: the design was chosen to reflect the wooden cross which traditionally marked the place where a soldier had fallen on the battlefield.
