Worcester to recognise armed forces heroes

Tomorrow is an extra special day in Worcester, particularly for the racecourse. Approximately 750 members of the Mercian Regiment, Grenadier Guards and The Queen's Royal Hussars - including veterans and marching bands - will parade through the city centre on 27th June at 11 am, ahead of the national Armed Forces Day on 30 June.

The parade will be followed by an afternoon of racing at the racecourse, where we will also be hosting a charity race in aid of Help For Heroes. Added attractions at the racecourse will include Military Vehicles on display, war horses, Military bands, choirs singing, army recruitment and fundraising for Help For Heroes.

Gates will be open from 12 Noon onwards, and as an extra bonus on the day, there will be FREE ENTRY FOR ALL to the CENTRE COURSE ENCLOSURE. If you fancy popping along, join us for a great day of celebration and racing!
