Members attend monthly church parades. We normally have
about eight parades each year on the last Sunday of the month (none in
December, May, July & August). Parades services last for just under an hour and provide an opportunity for the young people to explore and develop their understanding of faith. The services are geared to the young people are both interactive and enjoyable. Usually, the Boys meet at 10am. After falling-in, we march round the local streets lead by our band before attending the 10.30am service. Boys need to attend regularly in order to gain their service award. Family and friends are always invited and it is good that they support the Company and Boys at the Parade services. Each year, all the Companies in Manchester meet for the Annual Battalion Church Parade and members of the Girls Brigade join us. This is an exciting occasion when we march though the streets of Manchester City Centre. In recent years we have enjoyed services in St. Ann's Church, St Ann's Square. The Parade is so large that are a number of bands within the procession.
