Victory in Europe Day, known as VE Day, on 8 May marks the day the Allies formally accepted Germany's surrender in 1945. Events across West Yorkshire are being held to mark and celebrate VE Day, including choirs, live music and food. Some events recommend wearing 1940s dress, and others allow the opportunity to bring a picnic.

Fragments of memories survive, mostly captured now with the passage of time through a then child’s eyes. Of bunting and baking and the firing of flares to light up the night skies.
