    Preparations are continuing for a series of events for the Iolaire Centenary Commemoration in the Western Isles.

    201 island sailors, returning from the First World War, lost their lives in the early hours of the first of January 1919 when the Iolaire sank after running aground on the rocks off Holm on the east coast of Lewis. It remains the worst maritime disaster during peacetime in the UK. Image © BBC
