STAFF, patients, volunteers and veterans took part in a remembrance service in the chapel at Airedale Hospital.

The multi-faith commemoration included a two-minute silence and laying of wreaths, together with poetry readings and prayers said by the chaplains.

Lead chaplain, Liz Maitland, says: "It's important we give patients at the hospital the opportunity to attend a service, and also for our colleagues who are serving or have served and all those who want to be able to pause at this time.

"We must continue to honour and remember those who've died in conflicts across the years."

Guests at the service included West Yorkshire Deputy Lieutenant Angela Monaghan.

She said: "We feel it's important as a lieutenancy to support as many remembrance services as possible across the whole of West Yorkshire, recognising those who have served our country.

"Airedale is my local hospital, so I was glad to be there personally."
