The schedule for this year's Remembrance Sunday parade and service in Exmouth has been announced.
The parade will form up on Imperial Road at 10.25am on 12 November and will proceed along Victoria Road into the Strand for the start of the service at 10.50am.
Mayor of Exmouth Olly Davey, Chairman of the Royal British Legion Neil Gregory, Reverend Benedict Cambridge and Town Crier Roger Bourgein will lead the service at the war memorial with the assistance of members of the Royal British Legion.
Members of the public are welcome to lay their own tributes on the south side of the memorial.
Imperial Road, Victoria Road, Chapel Hill, Rolle Street and St Andrews Road will be partly closed to traffic from 10.15am to facilitate the parade and some of the roads will not re-open until the event has concluded at 12pm.
A spokesperson for Exmouth Town Council said: "Exmouth Town Council and the Exmouth Branch of The Royal British Legion are pleased to invite veterans, residents, local businesses and organisations to join us for our annual Remembrance Sunday parade and service in the Strand on Sunday 12 November.
"Remembrance Sunday is a national opportunity to remember the service and sacrifice of all those that have defended our freedoms and protected our way of life.
"We remember the Armed Forces, and their families, from Britain and the Commonwealth, the vital role played by the emergency services and those who have lost their lives as a result of conflict or terrorism."
