Secondly it gives the nation an opportunity to show your support for the men and women who make up the Armed Forces community: from currently serving troops to service families and from veterans to cadets. The Fund are currently looking for volunteers to help out with marshalling the parade and event including anyone who has spare time to help through out the year.
