VE Day 75th Anniversary - Robertsbridge Friday 8th May 2020
7th May 2020
Please keep everyone safe and celebrate this special anniversary at home. Enjoy your day!
Robertsbridge British Legion are not permitted to hold a public official event to mark this anniversary. They plan to share photos/videos of wreath laying at the war memorial and of their standard bearers dipping their standards outside their homes tomorrow.
In line with the message to STAY AT HOME we ask you to CELEBRATE THIS ANNIVERSARY AT HOME, observing social distancing with any neighbours.
Here are a few ideas:
* Put up the flags and bunting, and join in the Royal British Legion's livestream
* At 11am pause for a 2-minute silence,
* At 3pm join the nation's toast to the heroes of WW2
* At 6.30pm sing "We'll meet again" in your home/at your doorstep (see Katy Shuttleworth's post on Robertsbridge Family Information for the words)
* At 8pm watch the BBC One musical celebration
* At 9pm watch the Queen's speech to the nation on BBC One.
