V E Day Celebrations

What a great reason to hold a party, to celebrate 80 years since V E Day, we remember those that gave their tomorrows so we could have our freedom today.

Veteran Owen led the 2 minutes silence to remember all those that had fought and those that are no longer with us.

It was a good opportunity to come together as a community, share stories of our family’s experience of the war, VE Day, rationing and how things have changed.   Games, music, food and laughter what more does a West End Party need!!

This is what you told us about the day

The staff at the West End Centre would like to pass on a big thank you to all the volunteers who helped out to make this event such a success from preparing the food, donating food, making drinks, setting up and clearing away at the end of the day.
