6th June CATHERINGTON CHURCH 19:30 for 20:00 START

On Thursday, June 6 the nation will come together to remember the tens of thousands of allied forces who gave service on D-DAY eighty years ago and helped secure the peace we in the UK enjoy today.

Catherington Residents’ Association will be remembering the 80th anniversary of D-Day with an event in the Church. Blendworth Brass Band will lead the tribute with appropriate music and we are part of the National chain of beacons that are being lit to remember the largest seaborne invasion in history. The incredible operation began the liberation of France and laid the foundations for the Allied victory the following year. Hopefully the church bells will ring out a 1/4 peal from 19:00 to remember this historic event and all those people who didn’t return to enjoy the peace for which they fought and died.

The Beacon will be lit on the top of the Church tower by the Deputy Lord Lieutenant of Hampshire following The Tribute at 21:15 in line with others.

Please do join us at 19:30 for a 20:00 start in the church to enjoy the music and then outside for the finale, the ‘Lighting of the Beacon’. The church can only hold a limited number of people so if you wish to come along and enjoy the music please email to make sure of a seat. There is to be a collection in aid of The Royal British Legion.

If you wish to come only for the beacon lighting you are welcome to wait outside the Church it will be lit at 21:15. The Churchyard will be unlit and is quite uneven, you may wish to bring a torch.

To book please contact

Please feel free to come appropriately dressed for a fun evening.

CATHERINGTON CHURCH HALL

ENTRY ON THE DOOR £2.00 per person. Refreshment available.

The story of how and why world leaders and members of Winston Churchills War Cabinet were together in a railway siding in a tiny village on the Meon Valley Railway line in 1944.

Nick Byrne’s imagination was caught by this amazing episode in our country’s wartime history a few years ago and Nick has carefully researched and studied the story in great detail. This will be an excellent start to our D-Day events.

Please do come along and support your community.
