The mural has been painted on an end terrace in Walton
A new mural on a Liverpool street pays tribute to people who took a stand during the city's toughest days.
Often likened to the 1936 Jarrow Crusade, the march began in Huddersfield and picked up the Liverpool contingent on the way to the capital. Before setting off from Liverpool city centre, the city's parish church held a service from a number of Christian churches, attended by the Anglican Bishop of Liverpool, the Catholic Archbishop of Liverpool, as well as representatives from the Methodist church, the United Reformed Church, the Baptist Union and the Salvation Army.
In March of this year, historian Greig Campbell told the ECHO: "It's quite a unique event. This is young, unemployed people who felt so marginalised and they had such fear for their own futures, they actually got collectivised and self-organised, with very little help from the institutional labour movement."
"Everyone has the right to work, the ability to sustain yourself. But we were part of that first generation who were coming out of school and realising that there were no jobs. Our future was unemployment. So we marched."
