Act of Remembrance at Space4

On Tuesday 11th of November we gathered at Space 4 to bring together the stories from our Tommy’s Story exhibition and share in an act of Remembrance.  IMG_3359 Ros Pickersgill had made large poppies so that we could write our own special messages and she also recited a wonderful poem that she had written which reflected the many people in the stories that people had shared for the exhibition.IMG_3360 A little before 11am we all moved outside onto  a bustling Newbottle Street.  Rector Sue said a few words and then we observed the silence together.  We were joined by passers by who also wanted to show their respect.IMG_3361 IMG_3362 Following the silence we returned inside and placed our poppies on the exhibition boards around the stories.IMG_3363
