VE Day 80
On 8 May 2025, we mark the historic 80th anniversary of VE Day, with our parish coming together to celebrate 80 years of peace since the end of World War II in Europe, that so many millions paid the ultimate sacrificed to achieve. VE Day 80 is a tribute to those who fought for the freedom we all enjoy today.
At 9am residents of the Parish and beyond are invited to gather around the flagpole at Walberton Playing field to listen to the VE Day Proclamation being read as the VE Day 80 flag is raised. At 6.30pm, the bells of the Church will ring out in unison with cathedrals and churches throughout the nation. This will be followed by a bangers and mash supper and quiz in the village hall. ( See details on the poster).
At 9.30pm the parish will light our ‘lamps of peace‘ beside the flagpole, joining with over one thousand beacons and hundreds of Lamp Lights of Peace which will shine throughout the United Kingdom, Channel Islands and the Isle of Man, with the flames from them both, representing the ‘light of peace’ that emerged from the dreadful darkness of war, as we sing the great British Hymn ‘I Vow To Thee My Country‘, standing side by side in gratitude, honouring the many sacrifices that secured our freedom.
We encourage everyone to take part in this anniversary providing a day of joy, reflection, and celebration, reaffirming our commitment to world peace, ensuring future generations understand and cherish its value.
“Together, we honour the past and celebrate a future built on unity, hope, love and peace”.
