The service on Sunday 10 November will now be held instead at the war memorial in Borough High Street, joining the local service usually organised by the Cathedrals ward councillors in partnership with both St George the Martyr and Precious Blood churches. This year local residents will be welcoming the Mayor of Southwark and other dignitaries to their local service, along with residents who would normally attend the Walworth event. “As the council remembrance service has been left without a home, it will join the Borough service this year,” said Cllr Adele Morris. “I am sure local residents will understand why these changes have been made and will join me in welcoming the Mayor and other officials to the service.” “We had hoped that the restoration of the memorial, which has been allocated Cleaner Greener Safer funding by Borough and Bankside councillors, would be completed by then. “Unfortunately it has taken a long time to get all the details signed off by English Heritage and so the restoration will take place soon after the service. “The bayonet, which people may have noticed is missing, is with the council and will be re-attached as part of that work.” The Queen and Duke of Edinburgh pictured at the National Theatre last • After the Borough High Street service the Mayor of Southwark will month.
