2026 Remembrance Sunday Service in Blackhall Colliery

Remembrance Sunday commemoration services will be held throughout the county on Sunday 8 November when we come together to remember the fallen and honour the sacrifice made by many in defence of our country during two world wars and other conflicts over the years.

As usuaI I will lay a wreath at the memorial garden in Blackhall Colliery Welfare Park on behalf of Durham County Council.

As in past years, and again with the kind assistance of the clerk, members and staff at Monk Hesleden Parish Council, I have arranged for a buffet reception to be held in Blackhall Cricket Club immediately after the ceremony.

Everyone will be made welcome, so please feel free to call into the club immediately after the service.

Our communities have always stood together in the face of adversity so let's continue that tradition on Sunday with another strong turn out for this year's Remembrance Sunday commemoration service.
