Military charity invites local residents to attend Llandudno Cenotaph march to commemorate 75 years since D-Day
Blind Veterans UK are welcoming local residents to attend a march from the Llandudno Promenade to the Llandudno Cenotaph to commemorate the 75th anniversary of D-Day.
The charity, who are organising a whole week of activities, are asking locals to come and support them on their march on 6 June for a remembrance service. The march will be attended by the Mayor and Mayoress of Llandudno, the Royal British Legion, Association of Wrens, Royal Naval Association and the Ysgol Craig Y Don school choir. The march will start at 10.30am from the promenade.
The D-Day event will also be attended by blind veterans who served on D-Day and will end with a buffet lunch at the centre.
This D-Day event is part of a week of events organised by the charity which began on Monday 3 June. Other activities during the week include a RAF Valley Tour, as well as a Second World War Vehicles and equipment display.
