Elderberries VJ Day Celebrations

On 18 August 2025, 60 people gathered at St Mary's, Ely to celebrate VJ Day. The Rev'd Stephen Leeke led a moving service, with Anna Chaplaincy volunteers taking part in the service - and memories from 80 years ago shared by some of our Elderberries.

Anna Chaplain, Beth Georgiou told us more about the event;

"Afterwards we all enjoyed a splendid Afternoon Tea, courtesy of a grant from Ely Community Lunches, to whom we would like to express our grateful thanks. 

Many baked cakes and all the bunting was hand knitted by the Elderberries!"
