VE Day (Victory in Europe Day) marks the historic moment on 8 May 1945 when the Second World War in Europe came to an end. It is a day of remembrance, reflection, and gratitude — honouring the courage, sacrifice, and resilience of those who served on the front line, supported the war effort at home, and gave so much in the pursuit of peace.

As we commemorate 81 years since VE Day, we pay tribute to the extraordinary generation whose determination and bravery helped shape the world we live in today, ensuring their legacy is remembered by future generations.
