Council buildings light up in recognition of nurses
The Guildhall Clock, Alley Theatre and Council Offices will be lit blue on Wednesday May 12th for the global celebration of the contribution nurses make to society which is held annually on the anniversary of nursing pioneer Florence Nightingale.
Mayor Tierney urged the public to take a moment this week to reflect on the commitment and bravery of nurses both locally and around the world.
“I would like to wish our hard working and dedicated nursing staff across the Western Trust area a Happy International Nurses Day,” he said. “Across our local community and our hospitals, our nurses have worked tirelessly through this pandemic going above and beyond the call of duty to make sure our sick and vulnerable receive the care and attention they need.
