00:00Armistice Day is an important time for us to stop and reflect.

00:04It is a reminder that remembrance is for everyone.

00:08When we remember, we connect with service in a personal way.

00:13And when we wear a red poppy or take a moment of silence, we are saying thank you.

00:17We have not forgotten and we will not forget.

00:24Coming together for remembrance is a vital way to honour those whose service keeps us safe.

00:30Their memories matter. Their lives matter.

00:33And they remind us to be respectful, kind, brave and thoughtful every day.

00:39I hope that you can find your own connection to remembrance and carry it forward so we never forget.
