As you look around the Cathedral, you will see some silhouettes to commemorate those who served and died in World War I. These transparent figures help us remember those who went from Bradford and District – all the lives given and taken away in conflict and the families… (2/4) pic.twitter.com/cUGNPndOMK

A privilege to have been asked as a person of faith to place a poppy on an unmarked soldier and to remember people who have lost their lives in war and conflict for the 77th Festival of Remembrance at Bradford Cathedral on Sunday evening.
