In pictures: Littlehampton, East Preston and Angmering celebrate VE Day

Residents in Littlehampton, East Preston and Angmering made the most of the fine weather on Friday and celebrated the 75th anniversary of VE Day with social distancing street parties. Celia Thomson Hitchcock from Ahead To Toe in East Street, Littlehampton, had to cancel her massive street party for VE Day but, not to be defeated, she decorated with painted dried flowers and lilies for the occasion. Lizzy Henry and Gina Penn dressed up in 1940s outfits for their street party in St Mary’s Close, Littlehampton, and visited the memorial bench in Church Street, Littlehampton, for a time of contemplation with their own memories. Many of the bungalows in The Ridings, East Preston, were decorated with flags, bunting and balloons.
