To claim their breakfast, members of the Armed Forces – regular or reservists – must present their MOD90 identification card.

The offer can be redeemed at all Tesco cafes in England, Scotland and Wales this Sunday, June 26th.

“Everyone loves a free breakfast and we thought it was a gesture that showed how much we value members of the Armed Forces.”

Rhys Little, chair of the Armed Forces Network at Tesco, added: “We’ve got a long history of getting behind those who have been in the forces.

“We’ve received the Gold award from the Defence Employer Recognition Scheme twice now (in 2016 and 2020), and we were also the first retailer to sign the Armed Forces Covenant in 2014.

“We also do our best to give anyone leaving the army, navy, or RAF a chance to forge a new career.”

Manchester will also be taking part in the festivities to mark Armed Forces Day, with a huge celebration set to take over St. Peter’s Square tomorrow from 11am to 4pm.
