They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.

Share your pictures of your groups parades below

We’re proud to honour those who serve, and have served around the world, and who continue to support our communities. We will remember them. Royal British Legion

On behalf of all UK Scouts, we send our sincere condolences to our Joint President, HRH The Duke of Kent, on the news that HRH The Duchess of Kent has passed away. She was a great friend and champion of young people. We are thinking of The Duke and The Royal Family at this sad time.
