With the support of the Beverley Town Council and the Mayor of Beverley, David Elvidge the exhibition will help raise awareness and funds for two charities, Help for Heroes and the Children’s Liver Disease Foundation.

“As Mayor of Beverley it gives me great pleasure to once again work with the Defence School of Transport and in the doing so bring this unique art exhibition to my home town. The unquestionably high standard of the artwork coupled with subject matter make this exhibition truly unique. The setting in Beverley’s historic parish church of St Mary’s only adds to the events attraction.”
