The event is set to send a unified message of support to all Ukrainian people as attendees join in a quiet and reflective space, followed by a celebration of Ukrainian culture through dance, music and song. St Peter’s Church will also be open for refreshments and to provide a quiet space for anyone wishing to light a candle.
