Justice for Mineworkers Our main objective is to help raise money to alleviate hardship among the families of the victimised

The National Justice for Mineworkers Campaign was launched after the 84/85 miners strike at the Albert Hall, London, in October 1986. During the strike 20,000 people were injured or hospitalised, 200 served time in prison or custody. Two were killed on picket lines, three died digging for coal and 966 were sacked. The objectives of this campaign are to keep the issue of all victimised miners to t

he forefront of the labour and trade union movement and to raise money to alleviate hardship among the families of the victimised 966 men. Over the years since the strike many of the 966 victimised miners have died, some men, against all odds, have managed to gain employment, some have emigrated in their search for work and to avoid the blacklist. However, there are still miners who are either unable or have been prevented from obtaining work and these men, and their families, are the ones being helped by the Justice for Mineworkers campaign.
