Following readings, prayers and the laying of wreaths at the University’s own memorial within the VG&M, the trumpet sounded to mark the start of a two minute silence to honour those who have fallen

A short service was held at the statue, followed by prayers and another two minute silence
Wreaths were then laid at the foot of statue, as those gathered paid their respects
