A small gathering of campaigners took part.
The socially-distanced event – beside the memorial garden in Town Hall Square – was organised by Keighley Trades Union Council, in conjunction with the town council.
Keighley’s town chaplain, the Rev Dr Jonathan Pritchard, officiated and opened proceedings with a number of readings.
He called for “courage and perseverance” to succeed in the struggle for social justice, not just in the UK but globally.
The Rev Pritchard also made reference to the “five bad words” – ‘health and safety gone mad’ – emphasising how ill-thought-out the phrase was.
His message was supported by Janet Morgan, of the Trades Union Council.
