HIGHLAND Hospice was lit up brightly to mark its annual Wear Yellow Day fundraising event.

The hospice, which depends on donations to run its highly valued service, posted to say: "As the dust settles on our amazing Wear Yellow Day yesterday we want to say thank you for your incredible support.

"Over the day today we will post your photos, so keep an eye out and be sure and comment and share. We were overwhelmed with the numbers of individuals, businesses and schools who participated and with the money you raised. Yesterday our total broke the £5000 mark and we’re sure there will be more to come. Thank you!"

People can still take part and post photographs.

Limelight Event Services were behind the light-up initiative ahead of a programme of activities to mark the day.

Other highlights included Highland Voices Choir recording a version of Coldplay’s Yellow and Claire Darcy, from TFX Performing Academy, choreographing a dance routine to the song Walking on Sunshine.

“Thanks so much to Limelight Event Services for making our building look so stunning for Wear Yellow Day,” said a hospice spokeswoman. “We are really grateful to Paul Campbell for his stunning photos.

“Wear Yellow Day is really special, and we are love seeing so many schools, businesses and workplaces dressed in yellow and showing their support to the hospice while keeping safe. Your support in any form is greatly appreciated at this time.”
