THE MILITARY CHRISTMAS TREE 2026

This year, for the second time, a tree adjacent to the war memorial in Gheluvelt Park is being illuminated to recognise anybody who has given or is currently giving any form of military service.

The tree will be illuminated from 9^th December through to 5^th January 2027.

The names of those being recognised are on the Roll of Recognition.

For the name of someone you would like to be included on the Roll of Recognition a minimum donation of £5.00 is required.

Proceeds from these donations will go to support Stepway – a local charity supporting veterans and their families.

The Roll is in the order of donations received and does NOT include rank. The Roll is also on display in the windows of the Sons of Rest Pavilion in the Park.

Anyone can nominate somebody to be added to the Roll of Recognition.

Names can be anyone living or deceased and includes service in Army, Navy, RAF, ARP, TA, Land Army, etc.

SERVICE CAN BE CURRENT OR PAST.

If you would like to recognise somebody this year, please: go to our JustGiving page
