Celebrating VE Day at Renes

Today on 8th May 2025, on VE Day at Renes we’re remembering the 80th anniversary of the end of the war, and the incredible bravery and sacrifices of those who fought for freedom. Let’s take a moment to reflect and honour their legacy.

It was only some 10 years after this momentous day that Renes was established on the Lancaster High Street and has gone from strength to strength through to the current day, 70 years on.

We’ve been imagining what Renes may have looked like 80 years ago amidst the VE day celebrations! Take a look below!
