Victims of the Hillsborough, Grenfell, Manchester Arena, and Aberfan disasters have united to advocate for the Hillsborough Charter, emphasizing the need for honesty and transparency from public organizations. This charter, which will be signed by most public bodies in Wales, compels these organizations to prioritize the interests of victims rather than their own reputations. Jeff Edwards, a survivor of the Aberfan disaster, expressed hope that the charter would enact meaningful change in public services, ensuring that victims' voices are acknowledged and justice is pursued.
"It would have made a hell of a difference. Had there been a charter like this people's views would have been taken into consideration."
"Lessons haven't been learned - 60 years since the Aberfan disaster - things aren't coming out in public as they should be."
