Aims
<p>The aim of Heroes Welcome is to </p>
<ul><li>give a warm welcome and acknowledgement to members of the Armed Forces who do a difficult job in sometimes dangerous circumstances; </li>
<li>introduce a flexible discount scheme for service personnel visiting Stirling, to show they are welcome and supported. &#160;</li></ul>
How it works
<p>This initiative was originally launched in Scarborough in April 2008 and is now going nationwide.Heroes Welcome has the support of HRH The Prince of Wales , Chief of General Staff General Sir Richard Dannatt, and the Minister for the Armed Forces.</p>
<p>Where displayed, the Heroes Welcome logo shows support by a business or service provider for Armed Forces personnel and may indicate a discount, service upgrade or other special acknowledgement as appropriate - e.g. complimentary drink.</p>
<p><img src="heroeswelcome-2.jpg" width="250" height="174" alt="Heroes Welcome" title="Heroes Welcome" class="right" /></p>
<p>Appropriate ID will be required to qualify for individual offers. &#160;Businesses taking part in the initiative can identify service personnel as they carry official ID in the form of an MOD 90. &#160;Should a business wish to include veterans in their offer, they will usually carry a regimental association card or British Legion membership.</p>
<p>All offers are made in good faith by participating businesses and may be subject to change without notice.</p>
<p>Displaying a Heroes Welcome sticker is a show of support and not a guarantee of discount.</p>
