Havant Remembers – 11th November

This was a special afternoon of Reflection in the year that marks the 100^th Anniversary of the outbreak of the First World War and the 70^th anniversary of D Day which was held at the Public Service Plaza.

It was an opportunity for the Borough Council to thank all the local community groups and organizations that have held events and activities carried out in the ‘spirit of Remembrance’, specifically to remember the generation of 1914 – 1918 who lived through the Great War.

As part of the programme we were entertained by the Three Belles and Jim Booth who was part of the team that lead a secret underwater mission ahead of the D-Day invasions gave a talk about his memories and experiences.
