A Festival of Remembrance hosted by 1330 (Warrington) Squadron, Royal Air Force Air Cadets took place at St Elphin’s Parish Church last night (Saturday) providing a touching tribute to the service and sacrifices of our armed forces.

The festival provided a poignant evening filled with musical performances by Warrington Male Voice Choir, Warrington Brass Band and St Elphins Primary School.

There were also moving readings and a solemn moment of silence during the wreath-laying ceremony. A reflection of the past, the event brings the community together in remembrance and appreciation of those who have dedicated their lives to our nation.
