This year, Workers Memorial Day is focussed on the climate crisis and workers’ health. Heat stress, air pollution, UV radiation and extreme weather events are leading to greater injuries and risk to chronic health problems, including eye damage and cancer.

We will have a speaker from the NUJ, highlighting the attacks on journalists internationally and particularly currently in Gaza. As conflicts escalate, in an increasingly insecure world, the death toll to workers is only going to rise.

Join us at 12pm, Sunday 28th April 2024 to lay wreaths and share speeches from union activists to mourn workers killed and to continue to struggle our hardest to fight for safe workplaces of the future.
