Whitehaven Harbour's Wave installation upgraded for winter

Summarised from 2 outlets · Updated 31 Oct, 06:17 · Archive

The Wave installation at Whitehaven Harbour is undergoing improvements to keep it functioning through the winter.

The Wave installation at Whitehaven Harbour is undergoing improvements as the winter months approach. The display is known for lighting up the harbour and holds special meaning for the community, often glowing in tribute to loved ones or in support of charity causes.

Whitehaven Harbour Commissioners said keeping the Wave glowing is challenging because the technology behind it is difficult to fully weatherproof, creating problems in the wild West Cumbrian coastal climate. To address this, the commissioners have partnered with Forth, and some improvements are being put into action. A spokesman for the commissioners said: 'We love seeing it light up the harbour on a dark night, shine in the colours of charities fundraising here, provide a meaningful way to remember loved ones from our community, and so much more.'
