Yesterday (Tuesday, 23 March) marked one year since the UK went into lockdown for the first time.

Buildings across Preston were lit up in yellow to mark the occasion.

End of life care specialists Marie Curie organised a Day of Reflection to acknowledge people we have lost over the past year.

Prestonians were encouraged to shine a light on their doorstep at 8pm as a sign of respect to the hundreds of thousands who have lost their lives in the past year.

Lancashire County Council’s County Hall was lit up in yellow last night to remember those Lancashire has lost to Covid, and for those going through a bereavement.

All the buildings looked majestic as people across Lancashire gathered together to participate in the doorstep vigil.
