Dursley News - October 2020
 

Not too much happening in October as the ongoing pandemic continues to affect trade and daily life everywhere. A trip to the town centre reveals quieter streets, and those shoppers who are around are wearing the inevitable masks, necessary to slow the spread of the virus. Towards the end of the month preparations are being made to mark the 75th anniversary of VE Day and commemorative poppies are beginning to appear.
