Remembrance Day
Durham University will mark Remembrance Day, 108 years after the Armistice was signed on 11 November 1918, with services and events honouring people who died in conflict. Vice-Chancellor Professor Karen O’Brien will attend Durham Cathedral’s Remembrance Sunday service on 8 November and lay a wreath; the service includes two minutes’ silence at 11am, followed by a parade through Durham City. Staff and students are invited to observe the national silence on 11 November, while the Staff Chamber Choir will perform on 10 November and Durham University Choral Society will give a concert at Newcastle Cathedral on 11 November. The University also highlights its support for Armed Forces colleagues and its Ministry of Defence Employer Recognition Scheme Silver Award.
On Remembrance Day we remember the millions of people who have lost their lives in the line of duty. It is now 108 years since the Armistice was signed on 11 November 1918. We continue to mark the occasion with acts of reflection and remembrance to honour those who have died in conflict past and present.
