The Royal Burgh of Sanquhar and District Community Council would like to thank everyone who turned out to support its Armed Forces Day Flag Raising Ceremony.

The event was attended by the Deputy Lieutenant, Lady Jack, who is the King's representative in the area, and Member of the Scottish Parliament (MSP) Craig Hoy, alongside representatives from Dumfries and Galloway Council, local councillors, Police Scotland, Primary 6 pupils from Sanquhar Primary School, pupils and staff from Sanquhar Academy, and members of the local community.

The Chairperson, Greg Black, opened the ceremony with a few words of thanks. MSP Craig Hoy then said a few words to mark the occasion. He expressed his thanks to all serving members of the Armed Forces and veterans and commented on the importance of recognising their service and sacrifice.

After thanking Craig for his support, Greg invited the Deputy Lieutenant of Dumfriesshire, Lady Jack, to say a few words and raise the flag. Lady Jack remarked on the way the Sanquhar community comes together on occasions such as this to show its appreciation and support for the Armed Forces.

Lady Jack then raised the Armed Forces Day flag as representatives from the Royal British Legion lowered the standards.

Following the ceremony, Lady Jack visited Sanquhar War Memorial, where she commented on how special it was to see the memorial so well cared for and maintained. She congratulated the Sanquhar community for the pride it takes in preserving this important place of remembrance and ensuring that those who served are never forgotten.

The Community Council would once again like to thank everyone who attended and helped make the ceremony a fitting tribute to the men and women who serve, and have served, in the Armed Forces.
