A special flag is flying at Rugby Town Hall to commemorate VE Day 80.
Rugby Mayor Simon Ward led a short ceremony this morning (Thursday, May 8) where a commemorative VE Day 80 flag was lowered while a two-minute silence was observed to remember those who fought so bravely for our freedom during the Second World War.
The flag's now flying ahead of the national two-minute silence to mark the 80th anniversary of VE Day at noon.
