A wonderful evening at Stonyhurst College for the ABF’s Lord-Lieutenant’s Reception and Beating Retreat. Set against the stunning backdrop of the college, the Band of the Duke of Lancaster’s Regiment delivered a memorable musical marching display, continuing a centuries-old British Army tradition as the sun set.

Guests enjoyed ch*****ne and canapés before the ceremony, making for a truly special occasion in support of The Army Benevolent Fund. Thank you to everyone who made it such a memorable evening.
