The following message has been received from The Royal British Legion (TRBL) Director of Remembrance:
“With Remembrance Sunday less than a week away we are aware that the situation in the Middle East and the protests in the UK may be causing some concerns among your members who are registered to join us for the March Past the Cenotaph.
At this point, we are not aware of any potential protests during RBL Remembrance events. Please be assured that we are closely monitoring the situation and remain in close contact with the police and relevant government departments. We will provide further guidance by email if required and ask that you share any updates with your attendees.
Thank you for your support, we look forward to welcoming you to Horse Guards Parade on Sunday as we come together to ensure that the service and sacrifice of the Armed Forces community is always remembered”.

In 1925, the RAMC Association was formed to further the camaraderie of WW1 Corps veterans with Sir William Leishman being the first President. There are now some 25 branches around UK with a predominantly veteran membership although most serving Corps members also are members centrally. The Association has traditionally been supported by Corps Funds and especially for the expenses of the branch standards and standard bearers.
