Redcar holds socially distant 'street party' to mark VE Day

Eric Howden BEM, chairman of the Redcar branch of the Royal British Legion, lowers the standard outside his home in Redcar to mark the 75th anniversary of VE Day.

The North Yorkshire seaside town had planned to have a day's worth of entertainments to mark the occasion, but the ongoing coronavirus pandemic has prevented the community from coming together as they originally hoped.
