St Martin's Church Lads Brigade

A Centenary of Youth

It is 100 years since the The Church Lad's Brigade started at St Martin's.

We are arranging a series of celebrations starting on Friday 29th February with our Awards Night, Saturday 1st March, a Get Together, and Sunday 2nd March , a Celebration Service with the Brigade Chaplain and the National Choir.

We are very proud that not only have we survived 100 years, but over our history we have many members who have served the country with honour, while all our members have helped make the Brigade we have today a strong vibrant and sustained company. Many members we have today are the latest generation of a long line of families.

We would like to celebrate our centenary with all our ex-members. If you want to know more or would like to come and join us, please contact us by mailing us at:
barbara at (replace at with @)babsnchaz.wanadoo.co.uk .
Please also feel free to pass us the names of anyone else you may know who might also want to join us.
