20 years today. We still remember the day very clearly. Our thoughts are with all those impacted that day.
Today marks 20 years since the 7/7 bombings struck London. On that day, 52 people were killed, with many more injured. We remember all those who lost their lives and were – and continue to be – impacted by the events of that day. bma.org.uk/news-and-opini…
