The 8 May 1945 was the day peace emerged after nearly six years of war, so the 75th anniversary on 8 May 2020 represents an important milestone in our history.
On Friday 8 May 2020, at 6.55pm, Town Criers across the United Kingdom would have undertaken a special Cry for Peace Around the World.
But during this lockdown, Uckfield’s own Town Crier Ian Bedwell will be Crying for Peace around the world at 6.55pm on Friday 8 May and a live screening of the Town Crier undertaking the Cry for Peace will be placed on social media.
