Haywards Heath Town Council to celebrate 80th Anniversary of VE Day
- On 8 May 2025, hundreds of residents across the UK took part in parades and commemorative events honoring the eight decades since Victory in Europe Day.

- Activities included parades led by local bands, church services with wreath-laying and readings, wartime sing-alongs, and community gatherings featuring 1940s music.
- For example, around 500 people marched in Lancashire from St John's Church to the Constitutional Club, while Shrewsbury held flag-raising and beacon-lighting ceremonies with live music and readings.
- These commemorations fostered reflection on the sacrifices made, community unity, and a shared commitment to peace and remembrance for future generations.
