I WOULD like to thank everyone who attended the Remembrance Day service held in Central Park on November 13 and contributed to making it such a moving ceremony.

I was grateful many Dartford residents were at the war memorial to pay their respects.

It was particularly pleasing to see Dartford's youth organisations playing their part in remembering those who gave their lives.

I am thankful for the support given by officers of Dartford Council, the Dartford branch of the Royal British Legion, Holy Trinity Church, the Salvation Army, Royal Naval Association, Royal Air Force Association, the Armed Services and voluntary organisations.

Councillor Ian Armitt
Mayor
