Henley will come together on Sunday 8th November 2026 to commemorate Remembrance Sunday, honouring the men and women who have served and sacrificed their lives in conflicts past and present.
The annual Remembrance Sunday service will bring together the Mayor of Henley, representatives from the Royal British Legion, local authorities, veterans, community organisations and members of the public to pay their respects and remember those who gave their lives in the service of our country.
The service will commence at 11am on the Town Hall steps, with the traditional two-minute silence observed in remembrance of those who lost their lives.
The service will include readings, prayers, the Mayor’s address, the sounding of the Last Post and Reveille, and the laying of wreaths by representatives of local and national organisations, followed by a march past.
Members of the public and organisations wishing to lay a wreath will also be invited to do so during the service.
The service will be led by the Mayor’s Chaplain, Father Jeremy, and will include participation from the Mayor’s Cadet, representatives of the Royal British Legion and civic dignitaries.
A flypast is included in the Order of Service, courtesy of RAF Benson – weather permitting.
There will also be a 2 minute silence on the steps of the Town Hall on Wednesday 11th at 11am.
