Drumming up support for the NHS

The level of support shown across the country for the NHS and all other essential workers at this time has been very encouraging.

People gathering at their front doors to applaud and cheer each Thursday evening is a wonderful tribute to the unbelievable level of work that is being carried out every day in the most difficult of circumstances.

The Grand Orange Lodge of Ireland is encouraging musicians to come out tomorrow night with pipes, flutes, accordions, lambegs, side drums, triangles, any instrument to show our support once again.

This can be done at your home or outside your local Orange Hall. But remember, it is essential to abide by the current regulations governing essential travel and social distancing.
