A NUMBER of events will take place later this year to commemorate VE and VJ Day.
VE Day (Victory in Europe) will see a special event in Barnsley Town Hall on May 8.
Barnsley College students and pupils from primary schools will be a part of the service.
A small service will also be held on August 15 which is VJ Day (Victory over Japan) which marked the end of World War II as a whole.
Coun Robin Franklin said: “As a son of a serving soldier that was there throughout it makes me very proud.”
