Armed Forces Day

Join us in celebrating our armed forces past and present!
Armed Forces Day takes place the last Saturday of every June. It's an opportunity to come together in celebration and recognition of the service provided by our forces - past and present - and their families.
Rally the troops and show your support while raising vital funds for blind veterans.
We have plenty of ideas of how you can mark the occasion. Plan a street party, an afternoon tea or a quiz night in your local pub.
