A flag raising ceremony took place this morning on the Town Hall Terrace to mark Armed Forces Week.

The Mayor of Stamford, Councillor Amanda Wheeler, welcomed guests and gave a short reading before the flag was raised to honour members of the Armed Forces community. We were pleased to welcome members of the Royal British Legion, representatives of RAF Wittering, councillors and members of the public for the short flag raising ceremony.

The Armed Forces Day flag will continue to fly on the terrace ahead of Armed Forces Day on Saturday, 28 June.
