We had a whole host of VE Day celebrations planned at The Core Theatre, to celebrate the 75th anniversary on the 8 May. Sadly, these planned events will not be going ahead, due to the restrictions imposed by Covid-19.

However, we did not want that to stop our celebrations! So, we have done the next best thing, and our staff have come up with ways to celebrate from home. Throughout the day, we will be posting videos of our Encore team, who have been making Wartime Recipes in their own kitchen.

If you want to get involved, and make your own wartime snack, then click on the gallery tab to see a variety of 1940s recipes. If you do have a go, let us know - tag us in your creations on our Twitter, Facebook or Instagram as we'd love to share them.
