A number of organisations across Lewes District have formed a new anti-racism alliance, and, as part of Black History Month, several members of the alliance attended Seaford Cemetery on Wednesday the 12th of October for a Commonwealth War Graves remembrance ceremony.

Others present included pupils from Annecy Primary School, Seaford and Seaford town councillors Rodney Reed and John Edson, plus representatives of the Commonwealth War Graves Commission, which arranged the event.
