A Candle Lit Vigil was held at Dungannon War Memorial on 4th August 2014 at 23:00 hrs marking the centenary on the outbreak of the First World War.

LIGHTS OUT takes inspiration from the famous words of wartime Foreign Secretary Sir Edward Grey, who remarked on August 3rd 1914: “the lamps are going out all over Europe; we shall not see them lit again in our life-time”.

Charles Byrne, Director of Fundraising at The Royal British Legion, said:

“Sir Edward Grey’s stirring words are the campaign’s foundation. Our vision is that over one million candles will be lit across the UK, commemorating every Service man and woman who died during WW1. We hope to see candles lit at every war memorial, community centre and home in every village and in every community.

“This is one of a number of initiatives the Legion has undertaken to commemorate the anniversary of the First World War, when we hope to pass the torch of remembrance onto a younger generation ensuring there will always be a living legacy to those who sacrificed their today for our tomorrows.”
