Poppies are starting to be worn as the nation prepares once again to observe the National Service of Remembrance which will be held at the Cenotaph on Whitehall, London, on Sunday 14 November.

The service will start at 11am and commemorate the contribution of British and Commonwealth military and civilian servicemen and women involved in the First and Second World Wars and later conflicts including the Falklands War and Operations Herrick and Telic.

Do you need to get tickets? 

There is no need to get tickets or passes for the event and the public are welcome to watch the ceremony from the pavements along Whitehall and Parliament Street. 

It is worth noting that entry may be limited if the area becomes full. 

To ensure everyone can see, there will be video screens to the north of the Cenotaph, near the green outside the main Ministry of Defence building and outside the Scotland Office plus to the south of the Cenotaph on the corner of King Charles Street.
