The Royal Family attended the annual Remembrance Sunday Service at the Cenotaph<\/b> on Whitehall in London<\/a> on Remembrance Sunday<\/a>, November 9th, honouring those who have lost their lives in conflict, following the\u00a0Royal British Legion\u2019s Festival of Remembrance at the Royal Albert Hall<\/b>\u00a0last night<\/a>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

At the beginning of the solemn ceremony, the Royal Family watched Armed Forces personnel form a square around the memorial, which was followed by a 2-minute silence, after which members of the Royal Family; the\u00a0King<\/span><\/a>, the\u00a0Prince of Wales<\/span><\/a>, and the\u00a0Duke of Edinburgh<\/span><\/a>, laid wreaths on the Cenotaph memorial. Following the ceremony, the National Anthem played as the Royal Family departed the Ceremony.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

\n

The King laid a wreath, the design of which pays tribute to the wreath of His Majesty\u2019s grandfather, King George VI, and Queen Elizabeth II. The wreath\u2019s poppies are mounted on an arrangement of black leaves, as is traditional for the Sovereign, and its ribbon bears the King\u2019s racing colours of scarlet, purple and gold. The royal racing colours were also incorporated into the wreaths of King George V, King George VI and Queen Elizabeth II.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

\n

The Queen\u2019s wreath was laid on Her Majesty\u2019s behalf by her equerry. The Queen\u2019s wreath will bear Her Majesty\u2019s racing colours, inherited from her grandfather, and echoes the wreath of Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother. The King and Queen\u2019s wreaths have been produced by The Poppy Factory.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

\n

The Prince of Wales laid the wreath previously laid by His Majesty The King as the former Prince of Wales, featuring Prince of Wales feathers. The wreath now bears a ribbon in Welsh red.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Queen Camilla<\/a><\/span> led the Princess of Wales<\/span><\/a>,\u00a0Duchess of Edinburgh<\/span><\/a>, and the\u00a0Duke<\/span><\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Duchess of Gloucester<\/span><\/a> as they observed the ceremony from the Balcony of the Foreign & Commonwealth Office and had wreaths laid on their behalf by equerries.<\/p>\n

Last night, the British Royal Family joined King Charles III<\/span><\/a> and Queen Camilla<\/span><\/a> to attend the annual Royal British Legion Festival of Remembrance<\/b><\/span><\/a> at the Royal Albert Hall in London.<\/p>\n

\n

The Royal British Legion hosts the annual Festival of Remembrance on 8 November to commemorate all those who have lost their lives in conflicts.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

\n

The festival will commemorate the 80th anniversary of the end of the Second World Wa<\/a>r, honouring the courage and sacrifice of those who fought and lost their lives. Personal stories will also bring to light the experiences of those lost in more recent conflicts, connecting the past with the present. Special focus will be given to the resilience and strength of military children who have faced bereavement.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

\n

This year also marks the 25th anniversary of the UK government lifting the ban on gay, lesbian and bisexual personnel serving openly in the armed forces. The festival will reflect on past discriminations and celebrate the progress made since the year 2000.<\/p>\n

As the iconic poppies fall during a two-minute silence, royalty, veterans and the nation will remember the sacrifices made by those who have died serving their country.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
