A REMEMBER and Record event is being held in Wotton-under-Edge Town Hall this weekend for Remembrance Sunday (11.30am-2pm).
Members of the public are invited by Wotton Historical Society to record their wartime memories and those of their families and friends.
Local historian Bill Griffiths will be bringing along some of his unique records of those Wotton people who served in the First World War.
This will give residents the chance to link the names on the rolls of honour sited in the town hall with actual recorded material.
Photographs will be scanned, with the permission of their owners, for the society archive. Original photographs will be returned.
A soup kitchen will also be operating, serving soup and rolls, with proceeds going to the Poppy Appeal and the Historical Society.
The Remembrance Day parade, led by Wotton Silver Band, takes place prior to this event, with the wreath-laying ceremony at the war memorial.
Principal cornet player Jo Woodman will sound The Last Post.
