The National Piping Centre gathered over 1500 pipers to pipe for key workers last night.

A spokesperson said the centre was "delighted" with the response: "We hope its shows our gratitude to key workers across the nation and gives our support to those who are helping to fight the COVID-19 pandemic. We hope that it helps lift everyone's spirits at this time."
