The Reading Trades Union Council was proud to join others in a walk in memoriam for the victims of the Forbury Gardens knife attack which left three men, James Furlong, David Wails and Joe Ritchie-Bennett, dead, others wounded and still more people traumatised. Organised by Charlie Richardson, the walk also raised funds for the charity, MIND.

The walk occurred on 18 July 2020, commencing at 11:10. Gathering outside Reading Railway Station, the walkers proceeded to the Forbury Gardens to lay flowers of condolence at the bandstand and hold a minute's silence before continuing on to the Madejski Stadium.

The RTUC was represented by James Denny (RMT), equalities officer, who carried the trades council banner with the assistance of Alistair Fulbrook. Given the concerns around the COVID19 pandemic, with many delegates quarantining or social distancing and remaining indoors, the RTUC appreciates James's support of the event.
RTUC thanks Charlie Richardson for organising the event and for the use of the last photograph, which is his copyright.
