In 2019, MVP decided that, after 10 successful years, the classic format Mortimer Fun Day deserved a rest and of course Covid lockdowns made re-starting impossible in 2020 and 2021.

In 2022 MVP supported the Queens Jubilee Celebrations organized by SMPC and in 2023 MVP together with Mortimer Music Live hosted the Coronation Event. So certainly no Fun Day in 2023.

Watch this space for 2024.

 

Scouting and the Platinum Jubilee Parade

We all saw that the parade was led with great enthusiasm by Scouts, Cubs, Beavers, Guides and Brownies.  The participants were not only from Mortimer but also from Burghfield, Sulhampstead and Ufton Nervet.  Neil Johnson, who organised this part of the parade, has pointed out that this was the first time since the 1968 St George’s parade in Theale that these groups had paraded together.  Due to changes in the scouting world after that, the respective groups chose different paths. So, this joint parade was a moment in history.

Neil would like to publicly thank the leaders and members of 1st Mortimer, Burghfield and Sulhampstead and Ufton Nervet Scout groups for their participation and contribution to the parade.
