Social distancing has prevented the church being used for the service and instead this year the memorial and church services will be combined into one event for a gathering around the war memorial. It is anticipated that the combined events will last for approximately thirty minutes and people attending are asked to be in place by 10:40 am.
Direction from the Government, local County Council, Lincolnshire Constabulary, and the Royal British Legion on road closures for Remembrance Day events, means that the usual practice of closing the road is not allowed in order to discourage public gatherings. This means we have limited space around the war memorial and the event must be limited to a maximum of thirty people, to comply with the law.
The event will be separated into two areas. The official attendees, comprising members of the Armed Forces, veterans and other people actively participating in the event such as wreath laying, will be asked to stand behind the memorial along the wall. Test and Trace will be conducted for the people around the war memorial.
People are welcome to attend, however, they will be required to stand on the other side of the road in order that we keep the official number attending below the Government mandated limit of thirty people. (please see the Government guidelines on their website by clicking here). People will need to adhere to social distancing and the rule of six regulations. Attendees should be particularly vigilant for vehicles who may be travelling through the village and unaware of the event.
We kindly ask that observers allow space for residents and passes by to have access. No-one is to stand in the road to view the ceremony as this is a road traffic offence and we have been informed that Lincolnshire Police will be patrolling the area.
