Inverness Castle lights up for St Andrews Day

Inverness Castle is lit up for St Andrew's Day.
Inverness Castle is lit up for St Andrew's Day.

To celebrate St Andrew’s Day, Inverness Castle was lit up last night with a call to rally Inverness’ kind and generous spirit.

The projection is supporting the #MakeSomeonesDay campaign which encourages everyone to do something kind for St Andrew’s Day.

Venues around Scotland will also be lit up blue this week in support of the campaign.

Ben MacPherson MSP, minister for international development, said: “This St Andrew’s Day presents a positive, inspiring opportunity for all of Scotland, in all our diversity, to celebrate the inclusive, outward-looking and compassionate spirit of our nation – by helping others and by showing generosity and kindness.

“This year we can all show the best of what it means to be Scottish by each of us doing something small to #MakeSomeonesDay. If each of us does something kind for someone else, together we can make a big, positive impact for the benefit of the whole of Scotland.”

Helen Carmichael, Lord Provost of Inverness said: “Through the Inverness Area Common Good Fund, Inverness Castle, Ness Bridge and Inverness Town House will be illuminated blue to mark St Andrew’s Day #MakeSomeonesDay campaign in the hope that this will inspire some acts of kindness.”
