A tribute to those who served in, and in support of, the Falklands Task Force in 1982.
The Coachmakers’ Company will mark the 40th anniversary of the Falklands Conflict by paying tribute to those who served in the South Atlantic in 1982 and to those who provided vital support, particularly those with connections to the Coachmakers’ Company.
The core purpose of the event is for everyone to enjoy a splendid evening while remembering those who took part in the campaign. At the same time however, it is also intended to use the event to raise money in support of the Coachmakers’ charitable ethos.
