Residents are invited to join war veterans and organisations to commemorate the ending of the Second World War in Europe.

The Royal British Legion (RBL), supported by Tendring District Council (TDC), is staging a VE Day service at Clacton War Memorial on Monday, 8 May, at 11am.

Clacton’s war memorial is situated in the Memorial Gardens on Marine Parade West, in the seafront gardens.

The service will be led by Rev David Lower.

Richard Geddes, Chairman of the Clacton Royal British Legion, said: “As part of our regular commitment to Remembrance this is an important day to reflect upon the end of the Second World War in Europe.

“I really hope that people will attend and join this service to honour and remember those who served in the conflict.”

Members of the public are welcome to attend the service.
