Rutland County Council proudly hosted a poignant Armed Forces Flag Raising ceremony this morning at the historic Oakham Castle, reaffirming the county's unwavering support for the brave men and women who serve and have served in the British Armed Forces.
The ceremony, a deeply respected annual tradition, brought together local dignitaries, veterans, serving personnel, and members of the community to pay tribute to the dedication, sacrifice, and courage of the armed forces. The sun-drenched grounds of Oakham Castle provided a fitting backdrop for the event, with its ancient walls bearing witness to centuries of British history and military service.
The proceedings commenced with a warm welcome address by the Lord-Lieutenant of Rutland, who spoke eloquently about the vital role the armed forces play in safeguarding national security.
