Westmorland and Furness Council will mark this year’s Holocaust Memorial Day (HMD) by lighting up key buildings.

This is part of the national #LightTheDarkness initiative led by the Holocaust Memorial Day Trust (HMDT).

On Tuesday (27 January), the clock faces of Barrow Town Hall and Kendal Town Hall, and the front of Voreda House in Penrith, will be illuminated in purple. Buildings and landmarks across the country take part each year to show solidarity and remembrance.
