A wreath-laying ceremony will also take place at the Alrewas venue tomorrow (June 6) to mark the anniversary of D-Day.

The operation saw more than 7,000 vessels transport troops to the Normandy beaches as the Allies looked to turn the tide of World War Two.

The ceremony will take place at 12noon at the Normandy Veterans Memorial.
