Remembrance 2025
7 November 2025
This weekend the nation commemorates those who participated in, or were affected by, conflicts around the world. Wreaths will be laid and Silences will be observed. Mersey Care has a long association with veterans and our sites have had links to war hospitals over the decades. We remember the fallen, their families and all those for whom war remains a major life experience. Colleagues may wish to take moment on the eleventh day, next Tuesday 11 November, to collect their own thoughts. Please feel free to do so, as appropriate to your work and share this important national moment.
