Royal visitor, HRH Duke of Kent to unveil Spalding’s WWII Memorial on Wednesday, 13th March. Money raised, Memorial scheduled for completion within a week or so and a Royal coming to Spalding. What more could the WWII Committee want?

With such generosity of spirit, our Charity is well on its way to achieving our target.  We believe that we are now two months ahead of schedule.

We may have been called one of the 'unhappiest places in the UK' last week, but as it's #LincolnshireDay, give us a like if you're proud to be a #yellowbelly and let us know what you love about the area.
