The illumination is to help raise awareness for Childhood Apraxia of Speech (CAS), a rare neurological speech disorder affecting children.
The initiative comes after local mum Clare Simpson reached out seeking support for awareness efforts, inspired by her son Eddy, who lives with CAS.
Police officers will also meet with the family for a photo on the night as part of the awareness campaign.
