Royal British Legion Ammanford Branch

On this day 82 years ago, tens of thousands of courageous British and Allied soldiers, sailors and aircrew took part in the D-Day landings, the largest seaborne invasion in history.

Today we remember the service and sacrifice of all those involved, commencing the liberation of France and Western Europe and turning the tide in the Second World War. Together with personnel from the United States, Canada, Australia, Belgium, Czechoslovakia, France, Greece, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Denmark and Poland, British forces showed immense courage, and endured great sacrifice.

We will remember them.

Congratulations to Ken our British Legion President and long standing member of the RBL, for being awarded the Freedom of Ammanford Town at the Ammanford Mayor's Inauguration event on Thursday evening. As many will know, Ken has been involved over the years, in supporting the town council, the Royal British Legion, the Military Veterans Club Cymru and many many other ventures and activities within the local community and throughout Carmarthenshire. Well done and well deserved Ken sir🙂

On behalf of the members of the Ammanford branch of the RBL, would like to say a very big well done to all the team at Has Beanz Coffee Bar, after winning the Local Business Contribution Award for the year 2025 - 26, at the Ammanford Mayor's Inauguration event on Thursday evening. Well done all.
