Communities in Bucks are being being encouraged to get planning their celebrations to mark Her Majesty The Queen’s Platinum Jubilee in June.
The four day bank holiday falls from 2 to 5 June 2022, and the Council urge to get your plans set up early.
Peter Strachan, Cabinet Member for Climate Change & Environment, who is leading on the council’s plans to mark the Jubilee, explained:
“As with any event, big or small, planning is key, and we are asking people to think about how they might want to mark this historic occasion in their local area.
"We have added a Jubilee section to our online activities, groups and support services directory. If you are organising a Jubilee celebration, please add your event to the page so that we can create a record of Buckinghamshire’s Jubilee celebrations.”
To support those who may want to hold a street party the Council is waiving the fee for temporary road closures, but it is important that people apply in plenty of time before the deadline of 6 May. See this webpage to find out more.
On 2 June hundreds of beacons will be lit up and down the county to mark the Jubilee. Local communities can register to light a beacon. For more information, visit the official website."
Bucks Radio is hoping to visit as many Jubilee events in the area that we can, so please let us know if you are organising anything!
