The Not Forgotten Association is a charity that provides leisure & recreation for wounded, injured, or sick service & ex-servicemen and women.
Each year, The Not Forgotten Association holds a Garden Party at Buckingham Palace. It is the only annual Garden Party at Buckingham Palace besides, the Monarch's. It has been held each year since 1921.
In the early years, there were often no royals in attendance. The event was less formal with guests given a tour of the Royal Mews, tea and entertainment, and sports games on the lawn. In modern times, it is a more formal event and is attended by a Royal/Couple.
