Like many events the Annual ‘Derry Day’ to Relief of Derry Celebrations which mark the lifting of the famous Siege were more low key this year. Many of our members parade as Apprentice Boys of Derry each year and in some of our halls they met to mark the occasion as is tradition.

It was a pivotal event in not only the Williamite Wars but in Irish, British and International history. Where it not for the brave Apprentice Boys we would be living in a very different world today.
