We support Gloucester’s Armed Forces Day celebrations with £1,000 donation

Our Bristol team has supported this year's Gloucester’s Armed Forces Day event, which took place on Saturday 29th June 2024.

Armed Forces Day

Supporting communities

We Joined other local businesses as a sponsor of the event by donating £1,000 towards the running costs of the event.

The event, which is run entirely by volunteers, gives the community a chance to come together with military personnel to recognise, celebrate and give thanks to those who have served in the armed forces.

Plane

This year, the event encompassed both a parade honouring armed forces personnel, and a family day which included live entertainment, refreshments, and an opportunity for members of the public to meet with those taking part in the parade.

The event has special significance to our Bristol team, with our Whittle Gardens development in Gloucester providing new homes for several families with members stationed at the nearby Imjin Barracks.

Rob Curry, Sales and Marketing Director at Taylor Wimpey Bristol, said: "We were delighted to be able to support such a significant event.

"Through our development at Whittle Gardens, we're only too aware of Gloucester's military history, so it was an honour for us to sponsor Gloucester Armed Forces Day, which champions the work that the armed forces community does locally, as well as domestically and internationally."
