AN exhibition of memorial quilts commemorating those who lost their lives during the Troubles was unveiled at Stormont yesterday.

Around 200 people attended the exhibition at the Long Gallery at Parliament Buildings yesterday, which marked European Day for Victims of Terrorism.

Many of those who had lost loved ones during the Troubles visited the event, which was organised by TUV leader Jim Allister. The exhibition runs until March 19.
