Due to the closure of Bristol Branch (due to the lack of members), the Branch would like to invite Branches and Standards Bearers to join the remaining members in the Lord Mayors Chapel, College Green, Bristol, BS1 5TB on Sunday 14th January 2018. The Service commences at 1100. (Standard Bearers 1015 for a quick practise)
The Branch Standard will be joining the old RNOCA and No4 Area Standard already laid up in the Chapel.
We will retire on completion to the RAFA Club, Carlton Lodge, 38 Eastfield Road, Henleaze, Bristol. BS9 4BE, for a light buffet lunch.
Advance notice.

On behalf of the Frome branch of the Royal Naval Association, I am contacting service organisations in the surrounding area to invite you to support us at this year’s fundraising concert. Would you kindly promulgate this information and perhaps copy the attached programme to all your members.
This year is the 22nd anniversary of the Royal Marines Band Concert being held at the Memorial Theatre, Christchurch Street West, Frome, BA11 1EB on Saturday 11th March 2017; it is organised and sponsored by the branch. You are also invited to join us after the concert in the adjacent Assembly Rooms to meet the band and branch members.
Please find below details of the event and the methods available to purchase tickets; should you have any questions do not hesitate to contact me. Further information can be found at www.fromememorialtheatre.org.uk. It would be very helpful if you would contact me as to the numbers from your branch who decide to attend.
