Flying the flag for our Armed Forces

Staffordshire Moorlands Chairman, Councillor Ben Emery, is inviting people to join him at this year's 'Fly a Flag for our Armed Forces' event taking place in Leek on Monday 19 June.

Anyone wishing to attend is asked to meet at the flag pole at Moorlands House, Stockwell Street from 10.15am for a 10.30am start.

The event, which consists of a short flag raising ceremony and a few words from the Chairman, gives everyone the opportunity to show their support for the men and women of the Armed Forces past and present, including currently serving troops, service families, reservists, veterans and cadets providing a much-valued morale boost for Armed Forces personnel and their families.
