Big Jubilee Lunch Sunday 5th June, 12 noon to 5.00pm

We have had an amazing response to this event and have now reached full capacity on the site at the British Queen. We were sold out by mid May. However, the Parish Council has agreed to people setting up their own picnics on the day on the Recreation Ground. You can bring tables, chairs and of course decorations. No barbecues are allowed on the Recreation Ground. Meldreth Parish Council is also financially supporting us. At the British Queen, the plan for the day is the arrival of the guests dressed in their best Royal outfits, from 12 noon onwards. Her Majesty's “twin” will arrive at 1.00pm. Please line the roadside near the British Queen to welcome her. Guests can relax for the afternoon by eating and drinking in the company of “Her Majesty”, who will be visiting all the sites. There will be other food outlets at the British Queen, including a hog roast, burgers and Caribbean food. Please pre-order your Caribbean food by 2nd June (see the menu on the following page). We are linking up with Meldreth Village Hall for a quieter venue for teas and cake. Please see the following page for details. The Children's Queen's Portrait competition and the Best Decorated Table winners will be announced at 2.00pm. Our thanks go to our Jubilee Crew, a group of people of all ages, who have been working hard to make this a special Meldreth day. We hope that the sun shines over Meldreth on 5th June.

Jubilee Tearoom and Platinum Pageant Meldreth Village Hall

On the afternoon of Sunday 5th June, between 2.00pm and 6.00pm, Meldreth Village Hall trustees invite you to visit the Village Hall tearoom as part of the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee celebrations. If on your way home from the party, or out for a walk, it is a chance to enjoy tea/coffee and a piece of cake to complete the day. There will be a small nominal charge for the refreshments. We will be live streaming the Platinum Pageant on the big screen all afternoon. We also hope to have a few little surprises as well as a special visitor during the afternoon. The children’s Queen’s portrait poster competition display will be there too and a memories book for you to write down any of your Royal memories. Do come along and meet other Meldreth residents.
