Landmarc Support Services and the Defence Infrastructure Organisation have raised the Armed Forces Day flag at Swynnerton Training Camp to mark Armed Forces Week 2026.
The flag raising is part of activity taking place across the Defence Training Estate, with sites across the country showing support for serving personnel, veterans, reservists, cadets and military families.
Armed Forces Week runs from Monday 22 June to Sunday 28 June, with Armed Forces Day taking place on Saturday 27 June.
Landmarc works with the Defence Infrastructure Organisation to help manage and operate the Defence Training Estate, providing training support, rural land maintenance and facilities management for military training sites.
The company said this year’s flag raising also reflects its wider work to support the Armed Forces community, including career support for service leavers and veterans moving into civilian employment.
Mark Neill, managing director at Landmarc, said
“Our recent careers event enabled us to provide practical support to service personnel and veterans preparing for the transition into civilian employment.
“Understanding how to translate military skills for civilian roles, build professional networks and explore new career pathways can make a significant difference to achieving a successful transition.
“As a veteran myself, I know first hand how important Armed Forces Week is in recognising the contribution of those who serve, as well as the wider Armed Forces community, and we are proud to show our support during this special week.”
Brigadier Hatcher, DIO’s Head of Overseas and Training Region, added
“Armed Forces Week provides an important opportunity to recognise and thank the people who serve as well as their families, veterans and reservists.
“It’s fantastic to see the public, businesses, and fellow service members come together in support. Alongside our colleagues at Landmarc, we are proud to raise the flag at sites across the UK to honour their contribution.”
The Swynnerton Training Camp flag raising is one of a number of events being held nationally to mark Armed Forces Week.
