Members of the public are necouraged to leave information and add tributes on the Memorial Wall. Remember the Dead, Fight for the Living.

The TUC page says:

“April 28th marks International Workers Memorial Day (#IWMD). Around the world, the union movement unites to remember workers who lost their lives because of their job. This is a space where we remember those who have lost their lives at work, or from work-related injury or illness. It gives us an opportunity to reflect, mourn, share memories of colleagues and loved ones and give dignity to those who have lost their lives.

Trade unions will continue to fight for a future where no worker must risk their health or life while doing their job. We remember those we have lost and organise for safer, healthier work in their memory.

Honour those we have lost and pay respects by submitting a tribute.”
