THE BROMSGROVE Branch of the Royal British Legion will be holding a Memorial Service at Crown Close to commemorate the 80th anniversary of VE Day on May 8.

The service will start with the standards parading from Amphlett Hall to the Cenotaph at 10.45am.

A VE Day flag will be raised before the start of the service.

Wreaths will be laid by the Deputy Lord Lieutenant, the Bromsgrove District Council chairman and leader, along with Armed Services representatives – the Navy, Army and Royal Air Force. Other wreaths will then be laid.

Everyone is welcome to attend and anyone wishing to order a wreath can contact Jeff Evans by emailing: [email protected] or by calling 01527 576251 and leaving a message.

Mr Evans said: “The memorial service will be a poignant reminder of our history and the enduring importance of honouring those who have served and continue to serve our country.”
