Covid-19 restrictions mean that local remembrance events will not be able to proceed this Sunday.

However, that didn’t stop Scouts from the 10th Fife (1st Cupar) Scout Group from paying their socially-distanced respects to the local war dead on Thursday evening.

During their regular Thursday night gathering, which has been continuing to meet outdoors every week since August, Scouts searched for Commonwealth War Graves by head torch-light at Cupar cemetery before paying their respects with a two-minute silence at Cupar War Memorial.
