Armed Forces Day is celebrated nationwide to honour the service and sacrifices of the Armed Forces community. In South Gloucestershire, the annual event brings together veterans, serving personnel, cadets, and the public for a fun, memorable day—made possible by local councils, charities, and partner organisations.

Why It Matters

Showing support provides a valuable morale boost to our sailors, soldiers and aviators. To learn more about their work in the UK and around the world, visit the official websites of the Royal Navy, British Army and Royal Air Force.

Support doesn’t end with Armed Forces Day. The Armed Forces Covenant is a national commitment by the government, businesses and local communities to support those who serve or have served.
