International Workers Memorial Day

Leicester's event is organised by Leicester & District Trades Union Council. The event was chaired by me and Martin Foreman spoke. The event closed with a song and 9 balloons being released to commemorate the 9 people who have died in work related accidents in the East Midlands in the last year. 

Remember the dead - fight for the living.
