ANZAC Day will be marked a little differently this year. We’ll be warm and cosy at home and The Last Post won’t start until you press play. But one thing will be the same – remembrance.

To help us remember those who served and understand what ‘to serve’ meant, Ryman recorded their ANZAC resident’s stories. Some are humorous, others are tragic and eye-opening, but they all offer insight into the courage, bravery, and determination required to serve.
What better way to remember than to read the memories of those who were there?

Left on the grass is one thing, but it dotted up the footpaths because you’ve dragged your dog whilst they are still doing their business is disgusting!
Have a little respect for your neighbors.
PICK IT UP!!

The large Poppy was made from an old car bonnet.
Stu was inspired by a mate in Australia to do something to honour Anzac Day this year. Being an ex-Air Force man himself, with family members serving in WWI, WWII and Vietnam, and wife Catherine's grandfather serving in the the British army in WWII, he felt this was a fitting way to honour and remember them during the nationwide lockdown.
