The Queen’s Platinum Jubilee weekend is fast approaching and preparations for the celebrations are well under way.
Local authorities across the region have been inundated with road closure requests in order to host street parties to celebrate the Queen’s 70th year on the throne over the Jubilee weekend. Alternatively, neighbours could opt to keep roads open and organise more informal ‘Street Meets’.
In addition to street parties, the occasion will be marked by the lighting of more than 1,500 beacons across the UK, Isle of Man, Channel Islands, and overseas British territories.
