The parade involved companies from across the Worcestershire Battalion and a service at Sansome Walk Baptist Church, led by the national BB Worship Band King Jehoshaphat's Camel (KJC) with the Battalion's founder as well as Majors from across Worcestershire in attendance.Craig Crewe joined the parade's band as a bugler, Rob Parker as our colour carrier; also one of our Anchor Boys and one our our Juniors wrote prayers that were read during the service.
