After the ceremony, The Mayor will host a short official gathering outside York House to mark the national one-minute silence at 8pm.

The Mayor, Cllr Julia Cambridge, said: "This is a chance for us to come together as a community to give thanks for Her Late Majesty's life and service, whether in person at the Church or in our homes alongside family, friends and neighbours.

"While the Church does have a large capacity, it is first come first served, so please do remember the service is also being live streamed."
