Thursday 8 May is the 80th anniversary of the end of the Second World War in Europe. 

The Town Council and the Royal British Legion are working with partners to celebrate the end of the war and to honour those who fought.

Councillor Chris Paige, the Council’s Armed Services Champion, told Mike Waddington the details, he also speaks about the work of the Royal British Legion, where he is also the Chairman.

There will be many other events involving schools and other organisations (people considering Street Parties need to apply to the District Council for a permit.)

Chris says it's important to remember the sacrifices made and to honour the "greatest generation."
