Not a Branch organised event, but is advertised here as it is an event of great military interest.
This parade is planned to take place on Sunday 10th November 2024.
The National Service of Remembrance, held at The Cenotaph in Whitehall on Remembrance Sunday, provides the nation with a physical reminder of all those that have served and sacrificed, with British and Commonwealth soldiers, sailors, airmen and women represented, together with members of the emergency services and civilians, ensuring that no-one is forgotten.
Eligibility to march in this parade, how to apply for tickets etc can be obtained from the Royal British Legion. Visit Remembrance Sunday | Remembrance Events | Royal British Legion for guidance.
