80th annivesary tapestry project

In 2025, to commemorate the 80th Anniversary of the VJ Day, VCN created a memorial tapestry, led by our VCN Service Director, Dr Gill Le Page. Our veterans community had the unique opportunity to be part of the project by adding in stitches into the tapestry. The tapestry was displayed at Abington Park Museum in Northampton.
