Tribute is made to the many workers who have sadly lost their lives at work, or from work-related injuries and diseases.

It will also be a moment to pay tribute to the sacrifice made of so many workers during the COVID-19 pandemic, to remember those who've sadly lost their lives, and to thank all those who continue to do vital work at great personal risk to fight the virus.

At the Royal Borough of Greenwich, we are also paying our respects and remembering Council employees who sadly passed away during the past year. They are (in alphabetical order):
