The 138th Durham Miners Gala - Saturday 13 July 2023
Dear friends
The Durham Miners' Gala is the world's greatest display of trade union and community solidarity.
This year's Gala was dedicated to all workers in struggle and saw 200,000 people march through the streets of Durham alongside more than 60 Durham Miner banners, more than 50 bands and over 100 trade union banners from across the country and beyond.
There is no more powerful way to demonstrate our unity and determination than by all coming to Durham on the second Saturday in July.
Please help us to make the Gala the greatest show of solidarity ever by making an investment in this historic display of collectivism. See below for ways you can chip and and give your support.
Many thanks in anticipation for your help.
In solidarity,
Dave Anderson
Chair, Friends of Durham Miners’ Gala
