They shared their work before joining residents and veterans to learn more about the sacrifices made by previous generations.Alongside the children’s poetry recitals, the service included a prayer for peace, a reading about the symbolism of the poppy, the Ode of Remembrance and a bugle performance of the Last Post by John Hopkinson.For those living and working at Deangate Care Home, the morning carried particular significance, as it came just days before the first anniversary of the death of Maurice Churchouse, one of Deangate Care Home’s first Veteran Champions, who passed away on 11th November last year.His daughter Anne attended the service alongside relatives of other former Veteran Champions who have since passed away, including Sheila Johnson, Bill Dyson, Bill Curtis, Ian Dickinson and Steve Atkinson.Resident Martin Bradley, 67, said: “It was such an emotional but important ceremony. It was great to see youngsters coming along to understand the importance of why we should remember.”
