ARK intends to hold an Armed Forces Day event, to engage with the local Armed Forces Community as well as the local community. The day will consist of showcasing military vehicles, a local singer who sings wartime songs, a local band connected to ARK, have food and drink (no alcohol) and ice cream available as well as stalls from local people as well as family and children activities. ARK will undertake this event with partner organisations as listed above and the local cadet forces.
