We take part in events all over the country from major battles to living history presentations, and can mount events of all types and sizes either as a Regimental event or in conjunction with other Regiments.

Displays can be organised to suit all types of events from support for school projects, carnivals, county shows, town celebrations, multi-period displays through to large spectacular fund raising events.
