Despite COVID’s best efforts to scupper our 75th Anniversary VE Day celebrations 2 years ago, Lothians Veterans Centre is, at long last, now able to have a ‘wartime themed’ VICTORY STREET PARTY for veterans and their immediate family members! And…what better year to have it, than the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee year!
The party will take place outside the centre on Saturday 3rd September. It will start at 12pm and finish around 3pm. There will be tea, cakes, sandwiches and more. We will have music, and our very own Charlie Gorman from Music in Hospitals & Care, will be singing some of the old songs from back in the day. We will also have the Mayfield and Easthouses Pipe Band to kick off proceedings. There will be raffles and activities for the kiddies and some games. You are encouraged to come along dressed in wartime attire too!!
This is a ticketed event, but tickets are FREE for veterans and their immediate family members. You can get your tickets from the centre.
