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.
