Services are being held across the city to mark this year’s Remembrance Day attended by civic leaders.
Councillor Amanda Grimshaw, Brighton & Hove City Council’s Armed Forces Champion, said: “Remembrance Day is an important opportunity for all the city’s diverse communities to come together to remember and honour the sacrifice of all those who have lost their lives because of conflict.
“It’s a time to remember that the ripples of conflict spread far and wide and each person remembered also had families that were affected often for generations. We also remember the innocent lives lost because of conflict.”
