A 100-year-old villager was guest of honour at a party in Kibworth Beauchamp to mark today’s 80th anniversary of VE Day.
Celia Pemberton arrived at The Well community hub in a vintage car before enjoying the celebrations.
During WW2, Celia worked in the Women’s Royal Naval Service (WRNS), known as the Wrens.
Operations Manager Andy Wright told HFM pupils from Kibworth Primary School were also at the party:
