At 10.58am a Remembrance ceremony will be conducted by the Mayor's Chaplain, Rev Emma McPhail. Gosport Solent Brass will provide music and a bugler from the band will sound Last Post and Reveille.

The Mayor, Cllr Richard Earle, will lay a wreath on behalf of the borough. He will be joined by the King's representative from the Lord-Lieutenant's office, Admiral Sir Jonathon Band GCB DL. Wreaths from civic, service and association representatives will then be laid.

Following the service a march past will take place in front of hospital, where the salute will be taken by the mayor and admiral band.
