VE Day Display at Chertsey Branch

This Friday 8th May the Nation toasts together at 3pm from the safety of everyone’s own homes.

Christmas Remembrance Window at Lodge Brothers Chertsey

These trees are adorned with cards containing messages to those that are absent, but are never forgotten by their families and friends. The Lodge Family difference is the bond we create w...
