Galway Bay fm newsroom – Hundreds are expected to turn out for a special vigil in Tuam this evening to remember the residents of the Tuam mother and baby home.

The event is led by Corrandulla artist Sadie Cramer whose exhibition of memorabillia from the home will also open at Tuam Town Hall.

The vigil begins at the children’s graveyard at 7pm.

The procession will then make its way to the Square, retracing the steps of the children on the route they travelled to school.

A minute silence will also be observed as well as a short poetry recital.
