Such a special street party to attend with the kids, two WW2 veterans and others - though whether it was in Downing Street, a local village high street, a war ship, a mosque, or church - it is incredible seeing the nation coming together to commemorate and celebrate. #VE80

It's just one month to go until the country comes together to celebrate the 80th anniversary of VE Day - marking 8 decades since the end of World War II in Europe, with four days of commemorative events taking place from the 5th of May.

One month to go. We’re on HMS Duncan, calling on the nation to stand together, just like we did 80 years ago. This May, let’s show our pride, honour the fallen, and celebrate what they fought for. Let’s do this properly. A special mention to Commander Lee, thanks for having us!
