🇬🇧 Armed Forces Day was marked in Exeter today with a parade through the city centre, honouring those who serve and have served in the Armed Forces. We were fortunate to catch the parade on the High Street and have shared our full video coverage below.
The parade featured serving personnel, veterans, cadets and military organisations, providing an opportunity for the public to show their appreciation and respect for the Armed Forces community. 👏

A number of people paused to watch the parade and pay tribute as the participants proudly marched through the city centre. The atmosphere was respectful and appreciative throughout the event.
