The Town Hall Clock Tower will be illuminated purple on May 18th in recognition of Global Porphyria Day in the Town of Collingwood.
About this campaign: Global Porphyria Day (previously International Porphyria Awareness Week) aims to raise awareness of porphyria, and advocate for access to care and treatment for porphyria patients around the world. Porphyria is a group of rare blood disorders that have a wide range of symptoms. It can take years or even decades to get a diagnosis, and during that time patients suffer with strange symptoms.
