Today, thousands of people across Sussex gathered for Remembrance Sunday 2024, honoring the lives lost in military service with parades, wreath-laying ceremonies, and moments of silence. At precisely 11 a.m., towns across the county paused for a unified two-minute silence, a solemn reflection on the sacrifices made by servicemen and women in conflicts past and present.
In Brighton, the Old Steine was closed to traffic to allow for a respectful procession and the laying of wreaths. Veterans, local officials, and residents joined together in this symbolic act, creating a powerful tribute to those who served. Similar ceremonies were held in communities across Sussex, where residents paid their respects, reinforcing a shared sense of gratitude and remembrance across the region.
