A special St George's Day Armed Forces Church Parade is set to take place in Scarborough, bringing together civic leaders, veterans, and the local community.
The event will be held on Sunday, 26 April 2026, starting at 10.30am at St Andrew's URC in Scarborough.
Scarborough Mayor Thomas Murray will be in attendance, joining local veterans, uniformed organisations, military cadets, and residents for the commemorative service.

Following the conclusion of the service, refreshments will be made available for attendees in the church hall.
Organisers have warmly invited all local residents to attend and take part in what they describe as a proud local tradition.
