Lest we forget.

Tomorrow is Anzac Day, when the country stops to reflect and remember all those who have died in wars serving their country.

Thousands of Northlanders will attend Anzac Day commemorations across the region tomorrow - from Dawn Services to late morning or afternoon events.

The largest event in the region will be the Dawn Service at the Whangārei Cenotaph, in Laurie Hall Park, but many smaller communities have their own commemoration events to honour those who went away to fight and never came home. And many of those attending will be honouring them by proudly wearing their Remembrance Poppies.

Friday was the annual RSA Poppy Day Appeal and all money raised from poppy sales would go to the local RSA trust fund to provide aid and support to veterans and their widows.
