« The National Service of Remembrance for Wales, which takes place annually at the National War Memorial in Cardiff, is an important opportunity for all of us to reflect on and pay tribute to the servicemen and servicemen who served, fought and died for our country Normally Alexandra Gardens is full of people willing to participate in the service, and while they cannot be with us in person this year, I am sure they will continue to be a part of Remembrance Sunday, as they watch the security coverage of their own homes « 

« The National Remembrance Service for Wales has long been a fixture in the calendars of hundreds of people Now is the time to reflect on the enormous sacrifices made by thousands of people over many years This sense of reflection and sacrifice added resonance in 2020 Remembrance Sunday this year is also an opportunity for us to think of all who are affected by the coronavirus, and to recognize all who are on the front lines, fighting and responding to this global pandemic «
