VE Day Talk To Residents

The final residents talk (for the time being) was held in June 2025 to commemorate and celebrate the 80th anniversary of the end of the war in Europe – VE Day. Eric Birbeck gave an illustrated talk about Haslar in the Second World War and VE Day. HHG have delivered a series of talks on the history and heritage of not just Haslar, but naval medical and nursing services, for residents and friends over the last year. Following the talk we held a Victory Tea Party in the old medical mess for residents and friends – a grand time was had by all with some community singing and lots of cake!
