Commemorating WWI – 100 Years


At the meeting in March, Members resolved to purchase a WWI memorial bench for Alfreton House.  This will be positioned on the lawn at the House to commemorate 100 years since the end of WWI.  On the 11th November 2018 at 7pm there will also be a lighting of the Beacon Ceremony to coincide with 1,000 other beacons throughout the UK.  More details will follow closer to the event.
There are further plans to install 2 further benches, one at the Centenary Green and one at the War Memorial.

This morning at 9:00am, Town Mayor, Councillor David Taylor, led a poignant commemoration of the 80th Anniversary of VE Day at Alfreton House.

In honour of Victory in Europe Day, Councillor Taylor read the official proclamation before raising the VE Day flag, paying tribute to the courage and sacrifice of those who served during the Second World War.

The short ceremony served as a moment of reflection for the town, marking the 80th anniversary of the end of the war in Europe and reminding residents of the importance of peace, unity, and remembrance.
