Planting in Memory

Trees and flowerbeds to be planted in memory of those who lost thier lives to COVID-19. 

In remembrance of those people across our Borough who have sadly lost their lives to COVID-19, a tree will be planted at Antrim Civic Centre and Mossley Mill and new flowerbeds will be created at Whiteabbey and Antrim.

Mayor of Antrim and Newtownabbey, Councillor Jim Montgomery said;

“I have seen the pain and devastation of families affected by COVID-19 and other bereaved families that have lost loved ones and who have been denied a proper mourning. We hope that these memorials will be a lasting way for both families and our community to reflect and remember.”
