Remembrance 2024

November 9th, 2024 10:30   --   13:30

Please join Defence Humanists and the Humanists and Non-religious in Defence (HAND) network for their annual remembrance ceremony on Saturday 9 November. The event will take place at the Royal College of Defence Studies in London from 10:30-11:30 (doors open at 10:00), with refreshments afterwards.

This annual ceremony provides a forum for humanist and non-religious military personnel, veterans, family members, and everyone who has been affected by war, to commemorate the fallen in a manner that aligns with their worldview and philosophical belief.

We would love for you to join us at this moving ceremony. Please register your attendance.

This year, our list of speakers includes distinguished members of the humanist and non-religious community, as well as members of the Ministry of Defence and other organisations, including:

  • Professor Francesca Stavrakopoulou, Patron of Defence Humanists
  • Representatives from NATO military humanist chaplaincies
  • Members of Royal Hospital Chelsea
  • Members of the UK Cadet Forces

Please register your place now.
