The short service took place in the charities headquarters in Brownlow House. The service was conducted by ASA Honorary President, David Martin.

The memorial plaque was unveiled by ASA UK Ambassador, Carla Lockhart MP. Carla placed a wreath underneath the plaque and shared her thoughts regarding the importance of remembrance.

David thanked those in attendance, especially the family members, who had joined us for the unveiling of this memorial.

He went on to say that all named on the plaque had all played a role in the association and they will never be forgotten by the members of the Ancre Somme Association.
