Remembrance Sunday 2024

We were joined by our friends and neighbours from across Killermont and Bearsden so that, together, we could mark this time of national remembrance. Our Boys Brigade, Guides and Scouts shared in our service and marched down Rannoch Drive afterwards. People of all ages helped to lead through music and words. Hamish, Sophie-Louise and Chris led our Act of Remembrance with our two minutes of silence signalled by David playing the Last Post and concluded by Alan playing Flowers of the Forest. The trumpet and pipes were very poignant. We honoured those who have service and sacrificed. And we challenged ourselves, to allow our remembering to move from tradition to transformation.
