A huge thank you to everyone who organised community events to commemorate the 80th anniversary of Victory in Europe – VE80!

The effort put into celebrations like the one in Llanharan, which drew enthusiastic crowds and even “Mr. Churchill,” was truly appreciated.

These events marked not just victory, but the profound cost of defending democracy and securing peace. It’s crucial, even today, to understand why our grandparents celebrated so passionately, and to recommit to the freedoms they fought so hard to preserve and the values we hold so dear.
