Remembrance Day – also known as Armistice Day – on Tuesday 11 November marks the anniversary of the end of the First World War in 1918.

Alongside Remembrance Sunday, which falls this year on 8 November, it is commemorated each year to remember the sacrifice of the Armed Forces community from Britain and the Commonwealth in armed conflicts.
