A LARGE number of youngsters from St Helens were present at last week's Remembrance celebrations both in the official parade and in the crowds.

Their role in the services unites the new generation with the veterans of war, ensuring the stories of the sacrifices that were made by many are passed on and remembered.

Here are some more pictures from Bernard Platt that reflect children's role in the occasion.
