The Mayor of Saffron Walden, Councillor Richard Porch, is organising

a candlelit vigil for Ukraine which will be held this Thursday, 3rd March from 6pm.

Everyone is welcome and are asked to gather at the town’s Jubilee Gardens, Saffron Walden, CB10 1EH in a show of solidarity for the country which has been invaded by Russia.

Councillor Porch said “I hope it will bring people in the area together to share prayers and silent thoughts at this difficult time”.

A collection will be taken to assist the refugees.  Please note candles will not be supplied.
