Weston Subedge Platinum Jubilee Celebration Event – Thursday 2nd June 2022

On a glorious summer’s evening last Thursday, 2nd June, over 150 members of Weston subedge community, young and mature (!), gathered at the bowling green and village hall, to celebrate the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee.  We enjoyed a fantastic afternoon of tea and cakes, Pimms, a Hog roast BBQ, fantastic live music, and a whole array of fun children’s and adult games.  It was a wonderful way to celebrate and bring the village together, and also to enjoy the facilities that the village hall has to offer.

Our sincere thanks go to the Chipping Campden Community Trust (CCCT) for supporting our Platinum Jubilee celebrations.  The CCCT is a local charity helping and supporting the older and the more vulnerable people in the local North Cotswold community.  Thank you to the Parish Council and Village Hall Council for their support to make the event a success, and thank you to Becky White and her team for the delicious BBQ.

Thank you to all the volunteers who helped prepare for the event; promoting the event, decorating the hall, the bowling green, setting up the marquee, games and tidying up the day after!  Lastly thank you to all the villagers who came and really got into the spirit of the afternoon, an event enjoyed by all.
