A proud and moving evening in Newton Abbot last night as we joined communities across the UK in lighting our three town beacons to mark the 80th anniversary of VE Day.

We gathered to remember the courage, sacrifice, and unity of a generation who brought peace to Europe.

Thank you to everyone who came together to honour this historic moment.
