The Annual Wreath Laying Service at Westminster Abbey will take place in just over 3 weeks time on Saturday the 12th November 2016 at 2pm in the Cloisters of the Abbey. Please arrive in plenty of time. After the Service there will be an opportunity to view the Book of Remembrance in the Nave, and the Field of Poppies in the grounds of the Abbey.
