“I’d like to encourage the people of Calderdale to join in and step out of their homes for a ‘doorstep’ National Minute of Silent Reflection. This moment of reflection will be happening all over the UK at 8pm on the evening of Sunday 18th September, the eve of the State Funeral of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. Perhaps join in with friends and neighbours just as we did during the pandemic in appreciation of our NHS workers.
’”During the Minute we will have an opportunity, in silence, to reflect on the lifetime of service which Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II devoted to the United Kingdom, the Realms and Territories and to the Commonwealth.”
