~ VE-Day 80 - 8 May 2025
The 8th May 1945 marked the end of the war in Europe and WWII as a whole and is known as VE-Day. To commemorate the 80th anniversary of this event there is to be nationwide lighting of the beacons at 9.30p.m. and a tribute read.
Fletching will be participating in this event and the beacon will be lit at 9.30p.m. Earlier in the day at 9 a.m. the unique VE-Day 80 Flag will be raised in the churchyard and a proclamation made to remember the sacrifice made by so many millions throughout WWII. Then at 6.30p.m. the church bells will be rung, as they will be across the nation. All are welcome to join us in commemorating this special day.
