Friday 18th November 2016On Saturday 8th October 2016, Liverpool and District Battalion launched its 125th Anniversary year at Liverpool Cathedral. Members of the BB from across Liverpool, The North West and the UK were in attendance in the presence of The Lord Mayor of Liverpool, Cllr Roz Gladden and the retiring Brigade National Chaplain, The Very Rev. Dr. Andrew McLellan CBE, who brought the good wishes of the Brigade President, Lord Griffiths of Burry Port. Rev Bill Addy, a former Captain of the 35th Liverpool and Hon Vice President of the Battalion shared some of his memories from boy through to serving as an officer and beyond.
As part of the launch event members of the Battalion were invited to share what the BB means to them in just three words.
