Armed Forces Day is an opportunity to pay tribute to the British Armed Forces community for their hard work, dedication and efforts to keep us safe in the UK and across the globe.

The Armed Forces Covenant Board in Hertfordshire works to ensure those in the Armed Forces community are treated fairly, that they are recognised for the contribution they have made and to encourage the integration between civilian and military communities.

As part of those aims, we are encouraging everyone to show support for those in the Armed Forces Community: from currently serving troops to veterans, cadets and their families.

Showing support for the Armed Forces provides a much-valued morale boost for the troops.

Find out how to get involved in Armed Forces Day or, if you are planning an event, please register it here if you haven’t already.

Celebrations begin on 24 June when the Armed Forces Day flag is raised at buildings across the country with Reserves Day and Armed Forces Day celebrated on 26 June and 29 June respectively.
