Wreaths for Remembrance Day
'Alongside victims of war, I felt I was also laying it for victims of Covid and for victims on our planet.’

Exeter Quakers were among the many Quakers who laid wreaths of white poppies for Remembrance Day. This year their annual wreath-laying, in Exeter’s Northernhay Gardens, was videoed and submitted to the council to be included in an online ceremony broadcast on Remembrance Sunday. The gesture followed a short-socially distanced Meeting for Worship between 11 and 11.11am.
