Signature Dining is aiming to bring their 30 sites and over 1,700 residents together at 3pm via an online link to verify the attempt to break the world record. The independent care caterer says around 2,000 people, including staff, will be trying to break the record set in 2015 that stands at 620 people.
A spokesperson for Signature Dining said: “On 8 May 2025, we mark the historic 80th anniversary of VE Day, with the peoples, families and communities of our great nation coming together to unite and celebrate 80 years of peace since the end of World War II in Europe that so many millions paid the ultimate sacrifice to achieve it.
“VE Day 80 is not only a tribute to those who fought for the freedom we all enjoy today, but also a powerful reminder of the resilience and unity that have defined our country ever since.”
