Town Hall to turn orange to help stop violence against women

 

Llangollen Town Hall will be turning orange as part of a worldwide day of awareness next week. 

The Inner Wheel Club of Llangollen are inviting people to join them as part of the special Orange the World event. 

The United Nations initiative is being held to help raise awareness of violence against women and girls. The campaign motto is “HER SAFETY, OUR PRIORITY”.

Iconic landmarks all over the world will be illuminated in orange during a ten-day period from November 25 to December 6. As part of this, Llangollen Town Hall will be lit with orange lighting on Wednesday, November 26.

Members of The Inner Wheel Club of Llangollen will gather at Centenary Square from 11am on the day to distribute leaflets and raise awareness of the issue. 

It’s hoped they will be joined by other organisations in the town and any individuals who sympathise with the cause.
