I am planning to hold some more walks in the near future for those of you that couldn’t make it.
A big thankyou to everyone that came along and supported this weekends two Poppy walks. It means alot to me that so many of you came along. I hope you enjoyed finding out something of Pudsey’s past and how much effort the town made during the two World Wars. All of the information that was included on the walk will be added to this website on a new Pudsey Cemetery section. I am planning to hold some more walks in the near future for those of you that couldn’t make it.

Remembrance Day service at the Cenotaph is this year on Friday November 11th from 10:45am. Remembrance Sunday Parade and service is on Sunday 13th November details as below. As always everyone is welcome to attend both services, we are hoping for another fantastic turnout from the people of Pudsey again this year.
Please can we ask people to respect the barriers around the Cenotaph and leave room for the Parade to pass through. They will be closed up once everyone has passed through safely. Thank you. Please come along and support this event being held to showcase the lives and legacy of our forebears and the valuable history that they have left behind. Our townsfolk have served their country for generations and played a significant role in both World Wars as did the entire community. There are fascinating stories behind their experiences both for those who died in service and the lucky ones who came home and led full lives. It is vital for the future preservation of the cemetery that we recognise its true value.
The event will start at the main entrance on Cemetery Road from 2pm and should last approximately 90 minutes. Everyone is welcome to come along and join in, please pass this on to anyone you think maybe interested. Limited parking is available in the cemetery - use of public transport (30 Bus) / walking is recommended. |
