This year is The Queen’s Platinum Jubilee. A special occasion as Her Majesty will be the first British monarch to have reached such a milestone.
While there are several national activities taking place throughout the year, Buckingham Palace is also keen that communities get involved in joining in the celebrations.
On this page, you will find useful information to help you take part in the celebrations with friends, family, neighbours and your wider community.
You can find out more about the Platinum Jubilee and national celebrations on the official website.

Everyone from individuals to Scout and Girlguiding groups, villages, cities, counties, schools and corporates are being encouraged to play their part to enhance our environment by planting trees for the jubilee.
Trees are available to individuals and community groups free of charge from the Woodland Trust, as well as to parish and town councils.
If you decide to plant a tree (or trees) for the jubilee then we would like you to consider what you plant and where. Planting the right tree in the right place will maximise the benefits of tree planting including enhanced biodiversity, wildlife habitats and carbon capture.
We have produced a checklist of things for you to consider when planting trees (opens in new window).
If you need more help or advice, then the Woodland Trust will be happy to discuss your scheme with you.
We will be playing our part with our own jubilee planting schemes. We hope to be able to make announcements about some of those soon.

There is an ambition to light 1,500 beacons across the UK on 2 June. You can read the guide on how to register to light a beacon (opens in new window) to see if and how you can take part.
Our residents love getting together for a street party to celebrate big national events and we would like to see as many of you do so again for the Platinum Jubilee.
The main Jubilee celebration weekend will be Thursday 2 to Sunday 5 June, with Thursday and Friday being bank holidays.
Advice on how to host a street party can be found on our street party guidance page or read the Government’s guide to hosting a street party (opens in new window).
If you are planning to hold an event in your town or parish then please send us the following details:
Please email the the event details to our Community Services Team.

To help our residents celebrate the jubilee, we won’t be charging people for road closure applications for events held over the main jubilee weekend in June 2022.
If a road closure notice is needed people will still need to apply and they are advised to do so in good time but at least six weeks before the event. Not all events need a road closure though.
Apply for a road closure notice.
The nation is invited to come together for a cuppa over the fence, a picnic in the park or a larger organised event on Sunday, 5 June.

As this year is rapidly drawing to a close, with Christmas and the New Year fast approaching, now is the time to reflect on the past year in the hope that 2022 will be much more settled and safer for all of us.
Many of you will be enjoying time with family and friends over the ensuing weeks, unlike last year at this time, but as you enjoy yourselves, please spare a thought for others who are less fortunate and may be spending a lonely time on their own. A few minutes of your time to pass a friendly word or two can mean so much to some and much better than a present.
It allows them time to realise that they are not forgotten.
This year has also put a lot of pressure on NHS staff and care workers, who have faced many struggles of their own coping with increased demands, so on behalf of us all we would like to thank them.
We are proud to live in this village and to witness the community spirit that exists here, but we must continue to be vigilant and keep ourselves and others safe and in good health, by obeying the rules that still exist and by getting vaccinated.
Today, the vaccine remains the most effective measure to protect ourselves and our loved ones from the risks of COVID-19. Vaccine hesitancy is reducing, confidence and uptake are increasing across all communities. We urge everyone to get fully vaccinated – this includes getting your first, second dose and booster doses. Vaccines are safe, effective and save lives
In the meantime, on behalf of the Clerk and Councillors at Astley & Dunley Parish Council we hope you all enjoy a wonderful and peaceful Christmas and New Year.
