    I think from reading the text that the service is just after the 2 mins silence. Sorry, we’ve not received any details about other services around the Island.

    Hi Jennie,

    According to the Chronicle, the Ventnor service is at 3.00 pm St Catherines Church, Ventnor. The service moves from there to the War Memorial in Ventnor Park.
