Notice of Election - County Council ElectionsVE Day 80th anniversary 8th May – Community Groups Wanted
VE Day 80th anniversary in May – this important Anniversary marks the end of the war in Europe and WWII. Even though Thursday 8th May 2025 is not a public holiday, there will be several national events held on this day, and understand the Monday 5th Bank Holiday will also be a day when many events and celebrations are held.
The council will raise the Flag on the Tump on 8th May and wish to encourage our innovative community groups to come forward with their plans, projects or events using our Community grant funds. We have money specifically set aside for this and expect ideas such as VE Day 80 parties – perhaps exhibitions, or decorating with lights for peace, traditional tea parties or music events. Please speak to any Councillor or email the Clerk if you have ideas asap.
Grant forms to apply for Community grant funding are available to formal community groups here (see number 13 on https://www.stbriavels-pc.gov.uk/parish-council/publications/ ). Applications must be sent to the Clerk by the end of the month to make the next Agenda. We always welcome applications from parish groups whose projects can benefit our parishioners and is a vital role of the council to facilitate and enable benefits for our community.
