We supported the Royal British Legion at their VE day celebrations in Madley by marshalling the car park.

Also, as part of the VE 80 Commemorations, beacons were list across the country. In Hereford, after a full day of commemorations including reading of the Peace Proclamation, wreath laying, participation in the Nation’s 2 minutes silence and a cathedral service of thanksgiving, a beacon was lit on the traditional beacon site in Churchill Gardens on Aylestone Hill. The event was organised by Hereford City Council and the City Marshall asked for support from Herefordshire Masons. Simon Glover answered the call, clearing the area, preparing the beacon and handing the torch to the Mayor of Hereford, Councillor Kevin Tillet to light the beacon.
