Organiser Wanda Maciusko said: “It was very effective and we are thinking of holding a regular event outside the Town Hall.

"It helps to remind people that the Ukraine war is still going on.

"We stood in silence and thought about what was happening in Ukraine and showed our solidarity with them.”
