A Civic Memorial Service is going to be held in memory of former Great Grimsby MP Austin Mitchell, who passed away last month.

The service will be held at 12 noon on 20 September 2021 at Grimsby Minster.

Due to current restrictions, there will be a limit on the numbers able to access the service, however local businesses and the public will be able to attend by registration only.

At the service, guests will be requested to wear face coverings as they enter the Minster, but these will be able to be removed on seating.

Hand sanitiser will be available throughout the Minster, and the doors will remain open during the service for airflow.
