Hundreds attend annual service of remembrance
Hundreds of people came together in Reading for the annual Service of Remembrance organised by funeral director A B Walker.

Matthew Walker, Director of A B Walker, said: “This service is an occasion of togetherness and allows us to reflect on love and lives shared.”
