At the recent Lord Lieutenants Award evening held at Lancaster Town Hall 13^th July, attended by Peter Clegg and Mike Sutcliff of the Armed Forces Support Group (AFSG) this is an annual event where the Local Cadets, reserve armed Forces personal, are recognized for usually going the extra mile, and now includes local businesses who are signing up too and getting Bronze or silver awards for their efforts in supporting the Armed Forces Covenant.
