A request from the Cabinet Office in government on behalf of the Palace, via the Event Industry Forum, that the Showmen’s Guild is a member of:
A National Moment of Reflection will take place at 8pm on Sunday 18 September to mourn the passing of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II and reflect on her life and legacy.
The public are invited to take part in a minute’s silence to mark this Moment of Reflection.
We have created a visual toolkit for partners, businesses, trade organisations, ALBs and the public sector to raise awareness of the Moment of Reflection.
If you feel it is appropriate, please share the assets on your social channels, newsletter and with your network of contacts between now and Sunday morning.
Further information you could share alongside the assets include:
● The National Moment of Reflection, marked by a one minute silence on the night before the State Funeral, offers the opportunity to mourn the passing of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II and reflect on her life and legacy.
● The silence can be marked privately at home, with friends and family, out on doorsteps or the street with neighbours, or at locally arranged community events and vigils.
● People overseas are also encouraged to observe the one-minute silence at 8pm local time.
● Details of larger-scale public events to be held across the country will be published at:
