Arranging a Remembrance Service What is your role at London Euston Station, and your involvement with Armistice Day remembrance? My job title role is Station Control and Information Manager and my involvement in the Armistice Day remembrance is planning and organising it on behalf of the station.
Who else gets involved in the Remembrance Service at London Euston Station? Apart from the chaplain, I manage to organise the participants, including the Network Rail CEO, or a senior representative, and the other stakeholders who are involved with the Train Operating Companies that
serve Euston and the British Transport Police, as well as a bugler, who, last year and this year, is a member of the Salvation Army. Also, members of the public are invited to join us.
How important is it to hold regular events like this, and why? It is very important to hold events like this so as not to forget those who lost their lives in the First and Second World Wars and in other Military conflicts over the years.
What will be different about the service this year? Last years’ service was a challenge because of having to maintain a twometre distance due to the COVID-19
