Burton-upon-Trent Branch No.1 Group

 

The Group Standard for Burton-upon-Trent Branch No.1 Group

The Group Standard when paraded is the senior standard on parade for a Group parade. Like the County Standard its meaning is simple, that the Group Chairman is on the parade and that it cannot be paraded for any other occasion, except a County parade where it is subservient  to the County Standard which means that the County Chairman is on parade as well as the Group Chairman.

 


Burton-upon-Trent No.1 Group acts as a communications channel between the County and our 10  Branches and 1 Club Alrewas which are the lifeline of the Legion and the volunteers that run them work tirelessly to raise funds and provide welfare support whilst offering a social focus for their members to meet.

Groups also play a key role in the recruiting and retention of members from within their local community’s and help raise the profile of the RBL at parades and public events.

No.1 Group are the main stalwarts in the County's inter Group and Branch Sports. This year's Sport Final is being held in Uttoxeter.
