Timings have been announced for the flypast on Saturday 15 June to mark 75 years since D Day. A Lancaster bomber is expected to fly over at around 1.30pm, as part of a memorial service starting around 12.40pm.
A crowd of over 3,000 is anticipated, plus D Day veterans, the Lord Lieutenant of South Yorkshire, the Lord Mayor of Sheffield, and other dignitaries. Veterans will be arriving from 11.15am. The event will take place at the top end of the park.
If you plan to attend, please travel by public transport – parking will be extremely difficult due to the large numbers expected and restrictions on the day.
Poet and author Helen Mort talked about her work on BBC Woman’s Hour today, including reading her poem Norfolk Park. The show is available on BBC Sounds – Helen’s segment starts around 35 minutes in.
Huge thanks to the Friends of Sheaf Valley Park and Good Gym for their great work clearing rubbish from Jervis Lum recently.
Thanks also to everyone who picks up litter in the Park – or even just takes their own litter home. Every little helps!
Daffodils are venturing above ground in Norfolk Heritage Park – seems a touch early. Let’s hope they survive the colder weather that’s forecast for later on this month.
