On the second anniversary of the Nottingham Attacks, the Leader of Nottingham City Council has said no-one in the city will ever forget the tragic events of 13 June 2023.

“Two years on from those horrific events, I can’t begin to imagine what the families of Barnaby, Grace and Ian, as well as those who suffered injuries, continue to go through. The hearts of everyone in Nottingham go out to them,” said Councillor Neghat Khan.

“The city showed its support for the families when thousands of people came together for the vigil the Council held in the Old Market Square two days after the attacks to stand with them to remember their cherished loved ones.”

“I will be joining the memorial walk to the locations where Barnaby, Grace and Ian lost their lives to lay flowers on behalf of the city. Deputy Leader, Cllr Ethan Radford will attend St Mary’s church in Bulwell to pay his respects on behalf of the city to local resident Ian Coates. 

“It remains our desire to see a lasting memorial in the city to Barnaby, Grace and Ian but it’s important that we seek the thoughts of all the families before progressing any plans further.”
