VE Day 2025

We had a truly wonderful afternoon on Saturday the 10th of May 2025 celebrating VE Day. A heartfelt thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make the afternoon so special. We were also fortunate to enjoy such beautiful weather!

A very special thank you goes to the following people—your hard work and dedication are what make events like this possible:

Michelle, our dedicated First Aider

Terry and Sylvia Gausden for bringing along their fantastic car.

Dave Hayward, for capturing the day as our Photographer

The Village Hall Committee, for serving teas, coffees, and delicious cakes

Tony Skinner, for lending materials and engaging so warmly with everyone on the day

Peter Barrett, Jacqueline Mullane, Kay Lowe, Val Clarke, and Beryl Andrew, for kindly loaning exhibit materials

Bob Mercer, for assisting with tables and chairs

Phil, for being incredibly helpful with everything we asked—and an excellent gatekeeper!

Niki, our expert mixologist

Becky Godfrey, for keeping the little ones happily entertained

And everyone who helped clear away tables, chairs, and more—we couldn’t have done it without you!

Last but by no means least, a huge thank you to the brilliant team who brought the event to life:

Ceridwen and Terry Clarke, Tina Clark, Linda Blainey, Charlotte McDonald, and Hayley Roberts. Your dedication and hard work made the day a true success.
