TRADE UNION banners will be marched through the streets of Wakefield in Yorkshire on Saturday as trade unionists, former miners and families gather for the annual With Banners Held High festival.
The festival was launched as a one-off event in 2015 to mark the 30th anniversary of the end of the 1984-5 miners’ strike against pit closures.
The festival was founded by journalist, lecturer and author Granville Williams and a group of activists. The event in Wakefield’s Unity Hall raised thousands of pounds for the Orgreave Truth and Justice Campaign and Justice for Mineworkers.
