Residents are invited to a ceremony at Maidenhead Town Hall to mark Merchant Navy Day, an opportunity to honour the brave men and women of the Merchant Navy who kept our nation supplied during the World Wars and a chance to spotlight the UK’s proud maritime heritage.
The Red Ensign, the official flag for the Merchant Navy, will be raised on Thursday 3 September at Maidenhead Town Hall in a short ceremony led by the Mayor, Cllr Siân Martin at the War Memorial.
Please be in place by 9.50am as the ceremony will start at 10am.
