Drayton Manor offers free entry to veterans

A popular Staffordshire-based theme park is celebrating the work of the British Armed Forces by offering free entry to veterans and serving personnel.

Ahead of Armed Forces Day, on 26 June, Staffordshire-based attraction Drayton Manor Park is inviting military personnel into the park free of charge as a special thank you for their hard work and dedication.

Serving and ex-serving personnel will simply have to bring a form of military or veteran photo identification along with them on any day of the year to claim their free day pass to the park.

Drayton Manor has supported the British Armed Forces with free and discounted tickets for many years. William Bryan, managing director at Drayton Manor Park, said: “We 're all extremely proud to continue to show our support for the service men and women who go above and beyond for our country.

“This past year, many have had a different role to play, keeping us all safe during the coronavirus pandemic and they continue to work tirelessly to support the NHS and key workers.

“With Armed Forces Day this Saturday, it 's the perfect opportunity for us all to take a moment to honour their hard work and bravery and treat them to a day out free of charge - to enjoy some quality time together with their families. ”
