Wincanton Royal British Legion will be commemorating Armed Forces Day on 27th June with its third 'Family Event', and because it will be much larger this year it will be held at the Wincanton Memorial Hall and grounds.

There will be a strong military presence with sailors, soldiers and marines in attendance, along with their equipment and kit. Families and children will be able to see lots of modern equipment and the kids will be able to get up close.

Throughout the day there will be music and barbecue and interaction with our military personnel. Inside the hall will be various stalls, a licensed bar with tea, coffee and cakes available. The event is free and will be starting at 12.00 noon.

What a great way for us all to welcome not only those now living in town who are serving in our forces, but also their families.
