Lancashire-based company Clayton Park Bakery is offering a tray of pies and cakes to the first 10 VE day veterans who make themselves known to the organisation to celebrate the 75th anniversary of Victory in Europe Day.

The VE day celebration this year was due to be a three-day national spectacular, with the May Day Bank Holiday being brought forward for only the second time in history.

Winston Churchill's famous speech on the ending of the war was also planned to be broadcast in public spaces around the country. Now, because of coronavirus, none of these events will take place in their originally intended form
