Wokingham’s Mayor and Mayoress read the story of the Hills Nicholson family. All four sons killed in two world wars.
Today is Wokingham’s Heritage Day and this year we examine the research put together by many of Wokingham’s local history people. However, there is much more to the day, with a special focus on today’s children and lots for them to do.
In addition, we welcome a number of families whose ancestors are named on the Town Hall Memorial and they will be arriving from all over the country to be with us. They will be meeting at the Memorial at 1 pm in the Town Hall.
So bring your family and join in on a day where we are proud to remember those men of Wokingham who fought for their friends, family and future. It is also a time to enjoy our liberty have fun and appreciate the proud heritage of this community. Here is the programme for the day which has been organised by the Town Council:
