Armed Forces Week 2022

Armed Forces Week 2022, was celebrated by thousands of people throughout the county at the end on June 2022.

The Wessex Region was no different, with events taking place in every county of the region.

The week, culminating in Armed Forces Day is designed as an opportunity for people to show their support for the men and women who make up the Armed Forces community: from currently serving troops to Service families, veterans and cadets.

Below are a few photos of the event from our region and beyond.
