RAF REGIMENT MEMORIAL & COMMEMORATIVE STONES

The Corps Memorial Garden’s (CMG) new block paving in late-2009 enabled the establishment of individual and personalized RAF Regiment Memorial and Commemorative Stones in the pathway. The Stones may be ordered by anyone who may wish to commemorate a bona fide Corps individual, unit or event. The Stones are manufactured in honed light grey granite with black lettering and are available in several distinct styles. Badges and characters will be depicted in black.

ORDER PROCESS

The RAF Regiment Corps Memorial Stones may be ordered at any time but, since they will be manufactured to order in batches, no guarantee may be given as to when they will be produced or laid, nor will any order be accepted on the basis of meeting any specific date, such as anniversaries. However, every effort will be made to expedite their manufacture and installation in the CMG. All orders will be acknowledged and each installation will be notified to the individual making the order. A suitable certificate will be issued upon installation. For Reserved Placement Stones, please use CMG Form 2

PAYMENT

Payment must be made by direct Bank Transfer (BACS); details of the required Account will be notified upon receipt of the Order Form. Regrettably, payment by cheque is no longer accepted as banking delays and handling are too problematic. Orders will not be processed until the full payment is received.

TERMS & CONDITIONS

Orders will not be processed until the full payment is received. No responsibility will be taken by the CMG or its representatives for errors contained in the original order form submitted and customers are urged to check their orders carefully before submission. Orders may be cancelled without financial penalty up until it is passed to the manufacturer; thereafter, the order will be deemed irreversible and refunds will not be possible. The stones will follow a standard design and variations will not normally be permitted. As a guide, the inscriptions must be factual (eg Rank, Name, Unit/Appointment and Dates of Birth and Death or Service dates); personalization or emotive text will not be accepted. ‘Reserved Placement’ stones will reflect just a Reserved Placement number and their ownership will be retained by the CMG. The design, text and placement of the Stones within the Garden will be at the CMG’s Executive Council’s discretion and no guarantee may be given as to when they may be laid. Customers are encouraged to keep a copy of their order(s) in case of any issues arising. All prices are inclusive of delivery, installation and applicable taxes. Prices may change at any time to reflect changing costs. All orders will be acknowledged and confirmation will be given when the Stones are commissioned and then laid. E&OE.
