Following last Thursday&#8217;s tribute, Global Village will continue to show its support as part of #LightItBlue every Thursday evening at 8pm to encourage further regions to participate in the campaign.<\/p>\n<p>#LightItBlue began in the United Kingdom in March 2020 as a way to pay tribute to the country&#8217;s National Health Service (NHS).
