The Queen’s Diamond Jubilee Celebrations

Weekend of 2nd – 4th June 2012 – Not long now! We’re hoping you’ll all come and join in with the Village’s efforts to celebrate the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee. It’s an amazing thing for our Queen to have been on the throne for 60 years and none of us will probably see this happen again. So let’s make a fuss about it with a weekend to remember! Put up your flags, get out some bunting ...

Saturday 2nd June 2012 – Jubilee Concert

excerpts from Lionel Bart's 'Oliver'

Please let one of the committee know so that these children will also receive a gift of a beautiful bone china Jubilee mug, with suitable inscriptions to commemorate this special occasion.
