Upper Hutt shows it support for Ukraine
Upper Hutt is showing its solidarity with the people of Ukraine by lighting up its fantail sculpture on State Highway Two, blue and gold.
The fantail welcomes people to Upper Hutt and Mayor Wayne Guppy says lighting it up in the colours of Ukraine sends an important message.
“Our thoughts are with those in our community who are affected by the conflict in Ukraine. We've lit up our iconic fantail on SH2 in blue and gold, joining other monuments and landmarks around the world, to show our support.”
