Yesterday, the Mayor of Neath Port Talbot’s Remembrance Concert was held at St David’s Church in Neath, bringing people together to remember and honour those who have served, and continue to serve, our country.

The evening included a Remembrance Service, a moment of silence and the moving sight of thousands of poppies falling, creating a special moment to reflect on the sacrifices made by so many.

Lord Lieutenant’s Cadets from West Glamorgan were also in attendance, joining the community in paying their respects and remembering all those who gave so much for our freedom.

It was a lovely evening of reflection and remembrance, reminding us why it is so important to keep their memory alive.

🌺 We will remember them.
