⚓ Freedom of Poole for Navy Ship - celebrations on 4 May!
image
Over 70 service men and women will march through the streets of Poole on Saturday 4 May as a Royal Navy Warship is granted the Freedom of Poole.

The entire Ships Company of HMS Cattistock, led by The Band of His Majesty’s Royal Marines Plymouth, will parade from The Quay in celebration of the ship being awarded the Freedom of Poole, the highest honour a city or town can bestow on the Royal Navy or one of His Majesty’s Ships.

Drums will be beating, bayonets fixed, and colours flying! Save the date in your diary for the bank holiday weekend. 🚢
