80th Anniversary of VE Day
VE (Victory in Europe) Day commemorates the moment on 8 May 1945 when World War II allies accepted Germany's unconditional surrender, bringing an end to the war in Europe, and this year marks its 80th anniversary.
To celebrate this historic occasion, we are organising a series of events and activities, which we'll continue to add to this page
