It was wonderful to see so many residents at the VE Day 80 Beacon Lighting event. The atmosphere was truly special, with a great sense of community spirit throughout the evening.
We were treated to fantastic musical performances by High Voltage Performing Arts and Lorraine Cater, which had the crowd singing along and celebrating together.
Our Chairman, Jim Devlin, gave a warm and thoughtful opening speech, and we were proud to have two members of our Youth Council read the National Tribute.
At exactly 9:30pm, our Citizen of the Year, John Smart, had the honour of lighting the beacon as part of the nationwide commemorations.
A huge thank you goes out to the Billericay uniformed organisations whose support and involvement helped make this event such a success.
