Saint David's Day 2021

Dydd Gŵyl Dewi Hapus – Happy St David’s Day

For the second time in four years we are unable to celebrate St David’s Day in the traditional way, four years ago the Beast from the East prevented travelling and this year the Covid-19 restrictions have kept us apart.

The traditional celebration of our national saint is hugely important to all serving and veterans of the Welsh Guards. The Welsh Guards were founded on the 26th February 1915, three days later we celebrated our first St David’s Day as a regiment and barring extraordinary circumstances we have celebrated it every year since.

We cannot be together this year so here is a short celebration in film showing the continuity of tradition and the pride that we have in our saint, our country and our regiment.

Cymru Am Byth
