The club’s annual Remembrance Sunday Service will be held at the Heart of Midlothian War Memorial at Haymarket on Sunday, November 8th.
Conducted by chaplain, Mark Fleming, the service will be attended by members of the first team coaching staff, youth teams, coaching staff and members of the Board. Club Captain, Craig Halkett will perform a reading that honours the bravest team and the sacrifices that they made.
The service will commence at 10.45am sharp and conclude at 11.20am, at which point members of the public will be invited to lay wreaths next to the War Memorial.
There will be a British Sign Language interpreter at the service, which will be streamed live on the Official Heart of Midlothian Facebook page.
To avoid a bottleneck of people in other areas, all attendees are politely requested by Heart of Midlothian Football Club and Police Scotland to gather in Morrison Street, where loudspeakers will broadcast the service.
We specifically and politely request that people do not congregate at on Haymarket Terrace, the corner of Grosvenor Street or the crossing at Dalry Road as the experience of the service is less than ideal from these vantage points and for safety reasons you may be moved on.
The road closure of Morrison St will be in effect from circa 9.30am until 12.00pm.
We advise attendees with disabilities to arrive early and gather near to the memorial so that staff can direct you to the accessible viewing area. Please contact Keith Ferguson (keithferguson@homplc.co.uk) directly with any accessibility questions beforehand.
