Lenton Road will be closed between 1430hrs and 1600hrs on the 11th November.
Local residents will be joining with the Royal College of Nursing and others for this Remembrance event at the Nurses' Home war memorial at the former General Hospital site at Standard Hill on Armistice Day. The Memorial Home, now Royal Standard House, was paid for by public subscription after the First World War to give thanks to service men and women and nurses who gave their lives in that conflict.
It is not known that there has been a remembrance event at this location for many years, but the memorial bronzes have recently undergone extensive restoration and this centenary year is an opportunity to rededicate the memorial and remember those who made that sacrifice.
