Kitson & Trotman Support Armed Forces Day

Solicitors Kitman & Trotman are showing their support for Armed Forces Day by flying the new flag from their office in Lyme Regis. The flag was raised at 10:30 on 22nd June by Royal Marine Cadet Adam Figgins whose mother Sharon is a member of staff at the Lyme Regis Office. Adam is hoping to join the Armed Forces in September. Members of the Lyme Regis Branch of the Royal British Legion were also in attendance for the raising of the Armed Forces Day Flag.

The first UK Armed Forces Day will be taking place on Saturday 27 June 2009. It is an annual day to celebrate the work of the Armed Forces community.

Armed Forces Day is an opportunity for the nation to show its support for our Service men and women, whether veteran or still serving. It’s an opportunity to honour and celebrate the work they do in support of our country
