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. 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. 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. Following the silence we returned inside and placed our poppies on the exhibition boards around the stories.
