Hiroshima Day Candle Float Preparations

Posted: 11th July 2025

We are very honoured to have strong links with people in Hiroshima.  The Mayor of Hiroshima has sent us a letter wishing us well with our Candle Float.  The students of Kyoso School in Hiroshima have crafted a set of lanterns that they are sending over to join with our own as they float down the River Avon on the 6th August.  This will be the 80th anniversary of the dropping of the nuclear bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki and it promises to be a very special occasion.  Do bring your friends.
