In a moment of unity and reflection, staff and patients at Victoria Road Surgery gathered in front of the surgery to observe a two-minute silence, honoring those who have served and sacrificed in conflicts around the world. Clinical and non-clinical staff joined patients in paying their respects, pausing from daily routines to collectively commemorate Remembrance Day.

The ceremony, held at 11 a.m., saw staff and patients standing together in a moment of quiet solidarity. The stillness was a powerful reminder of the service and dedication shown by countless individuals, including many from within the local community. The silence served as both a tribute to past generations and a reminder of the ongoing commitment to peace and unity.

“Taking time to remember is important to all of us here at Victoria Road Surgery,” said Ash Practice manager. “We’re grateful to everyone who joined us today, and we feel honored to be able to mark this occasion as a community.”

The staff at Victoria Road Surgery hopes that this brief moment of reflection inspires continued awareness and gratitude for those who serve, and looks forward to observing the tradition in the years to come.
