Leigh Village King Charles III Coronation Celebrations

Dear Resident,

The Parish Council have delegated a group of volunteers to organise events during the Coronation weekend 6-8 May 2023. There are two principal events happening which we hope that people will get involved with.

The first event in accordance with the Kings Coronation plans is the big lunch which is being held throughout the country. Leigh village will have their own lunch on the village green opposite the Plough Pub from 1200 onwards on the 7 May. It is essentially a picnic with a prize for the most elaborate and decorative table or picnic blanket. An information flyer will be posted to all dwellings and a contact email address leighbiglunch@gmail.com has been set up for your responses or questions.

The second event will be the big help out in accordance with the Kings wishes. This will be on Monday 8 May 2023 and again a flyer will be distributed detailing what is happening and how you can get involved. The email contact is leighbighelpout@gmail.com

There are alternative methods of contact on the flyers.

We look forward to seeing you all during that weekend.

Leigh Coronation Committee
