Officers stood alongside veterans, serving personnel, and residents to pay their respects on Remembrance Sunday.

Neighbourhood police teams from North, East, and Rural Swindon attended Remembrance Sunday services in Wroughton, Highworth, and Stratton to mark the occasion and pay their respects.

A spokesperson for the Swindon North, East and Rural policing team said: "Today, on this Remembrance Sunday, we pause to honour the service and sacrifice of all those who gave their lives in the line of duty – past and present.

"It is an opportunity for us all to reflect on the courage, dedication, and selflessness of the men and women of our Armed Forces, past and present.

"We also remember those within our policing family who have lost their lives in the line of duty, and recognise the commitment of all who dedicate their lives to serving and protecting others.

"It was a privilege for our officers to stand alongside veterans, serving personnel, community representatives, and residents, united in remembrance and gratitude.

"We will remember them."
