In the mood! The Millholme Dixieland Jazz Band setting the atmosphere! -
An almost timeless scene in the Village Institute -
The conga snaked its way out of the village hall, across the road, around the car park and back again!
The Parish Council are pleased to have supported the VE-Day 80th Anniversary Celebrations at the Village Hall on Monday 5th of May. The event was well attended with the ages ranging from 4 to 99! Cakes, live music and singing, a fashion show, readings and even a conga out into the car park, it was an afternoon to remember.
A thank you message from the organisers:
Thank you to everyone who joined us to celebrate and remember the sacrifices made by so many for us to have the freedom we enjoy today. Thank you too for your generous donations amounting to £694 for SSAFA which provides welfare, health and support services for the UK’s military personnel (regular and reserves), veterans and their families. And thank you too to the many helpers who baked, served refreshments, welcomed people, decorated the hall, provided technical support, and entertained us. How blessed we are to live in such a beautiful and safe part of the world amid a caring community.
