Two permanent tributes to the victims of Hillsborough were
unveiled in Liverpool city centre today.
Families and campaigners came together for two ceremonies
ahead of the 24-year anniversary of a disaster which stole the lives of 96
innocent supporters.
The first to be unveiled was an 8ft clock in Liverpool Town
Hall made by renowned maker John Clifton. The clock is frozen at 3.06pm - the
time that our FA Cup semi-final against Nottingham Forest in 1989 was stopped.
The second monument at Old Haymarket is a 7ft bronze
structure featuring the words "Hillsborough Disaster - we will remember
them", along with the names of all 96 fans who died on the Leppings Lane
terraces.
The Hillsborough Justice Campaign commissioned artist Tom
Murphy to create the monument.
