On 12th November 2025 The Cross-Party Group on Ukraine organised
The Light We Share
- a landmark event at the Scottish Parliament celebrating the strength, creativity, and spirit of the Ukrainian people.
Having sought refuge from war, Ukrainians are now shaping and enriching Scotland’s cultural life—on great stages and in major galleries, from the Edinburgh Fringe to the Tattoo—their voices resonating at the very heart of Scotland’s story.
This first-of-its-kind gathering will weave together exhibitions, testimonies, music, and light—symbols of resilience, unity, and hope.
It will showcase the creativity of Ukraine’s people and their contribution to Scottish life. Your presence will be a powerful gesture of solidarity, honouring these achievements while affirming our shared commitment to a brighter future together.
It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business. Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more. Or maybe you have a creative project to share with the world. Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. Don’t worry about sounding professional. Sound like you. There are over 1.5 billion websites out there, but your story is what’s going to separate this one from the rest. If you read the words back and don’t hear your own voice in your head, that’s a good sign you still have more work to do.
