D-Day Beacon Lighting Ceremony

Everyone’s invited by Ruddington Parish Council (RPC) to mark the 80th anniversary of D-Day in the village. This community evening event is on Thursday 6th June.

D-Day was the invasion of Normandy on 6th June 1944 – World War II did not end on that date – and it led to a successful pathway towards victory for the Allied Forces. #wewillrememberthem You can read the Ruddington news story <<HERE<<.
