An important date for your diary - May 4th 2025

To celebrate the 80th Anniversary of the end of WW2 join us on May 4th, 2025, on Main Street and around St James Church from 1pm-9pm. The RBL, St James Church and the Parish Council are working together to bring you a community event which will include a display of WW2 Military Vehicles, Big Band music of the Period, Dancing, Children’s Activities, Afternoon Teas and finishing with a Prom in the Churchyard. The Kalamazoo Band has already been booked to provide the music.

Let’s party like its 1945 – prize for the best 1940s costume.

Keep an eye out for more details.
