A photo from the vigil held in Wells
A SILENT vigil took place outside Wells Cathedral to show support for the people of Ukraine and raise funds for the Red Cross Appeal.
The vigil was organised by the Wells Amnesty Group and Mid Somerset Oxfam Group and began at 11am.
The event, which took place on Tuesday, March 1, lasted one hour with readings held every fifteen minutes.
Those taking part held up individual letters to show the phrase 'Solidarity with Ukraine' and a collection for the Red Cross Appeal raised £370.62.
Another vigil, organised by the two groups, is scheduled to take place in Wells on Wednesday, March 9.
