Remembrance Sunday Ceremony

Our thanks go to all current and former Trust board members who were among a congregation who attended yesterdays Remembrance Day ceremony at the Swansea.com Stadium.

 

 

This year our wreath was placed below the WW1 memorial plaque by Club and Trust Honorary President Alan Curtis MBE.

 

 

The plaque was unveiled by the Swans Trust in 2014 remembering those Swansea Town players who lost their lives in WW1.

 

 

Also laying a wreath on behalf of Swansea City AFC was Stadium Manager Jamie Gibbons while Wayne Jenkins represented the Swansea Veterans Hub.
