How veterans groups and armed forces charities mark occasions that deserve more than a generic display

Veterans groups and armed forces charities occupy a particular place in community life. The occasions they mark — Remembrance Sunday, unit reunions, memorial services, fundraising events for welfare causes — carry a weight and significance that demands the right response from every element of the occasion. Including the printed environment.

What these occasions represent

We approach this work with an awareness of what it represents. A banner (link) for a Remembrance Sunday event is not a generic charity event banner. A display board for a regimental association dinner carries specific meaning to the people who will see it. An exhibition marking the service of a particular unit or generation requires a level of accuracy and respect that a commercial project does not.

Getting the details right

The printed elements for veterans group events tend to cover a similar range to other community occasions — banners, backdrops, table displays, programmes. But the specific requirements of accuracy, dignity and tone require careful attention. The units named must be correctly named. The honours listed must be correctly recorded. The imagery used must be appropriate and historically accurate.

Permanent displays built to last

For commemorative displays that are permanent rather than event-specific — a roll of honour (link) in a regimental museum, a memorial board in a veterans’ welfare centre, a display in a community space — the requirements for durability and quality are heightened. These are displays that will be seen for years and that carry the names of people for whom accuracy is a matter of respect.

A collective identity in public

For members who represent their group at public events, polo shirts (link) and other branded clothing carrying the association’s badge or insignia create a collective identity.
