A VARIETY Remembrance show will be held at the Verwood Hub this Sunday from 2.15pm-6pm.

Following the sell out performance in Ferndown last year, this year’s performance is set to be even more spectacular.

Proceeds will be shared between Help4Heroes, The Jon Egging Trust and the Hub.

This high profile Dorset salute of remembrance combines traditional variety with a version of the Albert Hall Festival of Remembrance and will commemorate those who gave their lives in the First World War, right through to recent conflicts, including recognition of the sacrifice of Malta and the end of 13 years in Afghanistan.

There will be a special dedication to Rifleman Phil Allen from Verwood, who made the ultimate sacrifice in Afghanistan in 2009.

Special guests include the Lord Lieutenant of Dorset Angus Campbell, Civic Dignitaries, the Gurkhas and regimental association representatives. Guest celebrity will be Michael Medwin OBE – star of the Army Game and much more.

The best in local amateur and professional talent is promised.

Veterans are asked to wear their medals at the event, and family members wishing to commemorate service by close relatives are also invited to wear decorations on their right hand side.

Tickets cost £12 and £6 from 01202 828740 or lifestyleverwood.com.
