British Safety Council endorses the Hillsborough disaster verdict arguing the deaths were avoidable and unlawful
Following Wednesday’s announcement of Sir John Goldring, the Coroner presiding over the inquest into the death of 96 Liverpool supporters at Hillsborough in April 1989, the British Safety Council added its opinion to the issue. It was supported by the voice of David Parr, Head of Audit at the British Safety Council, who as a 29-year-old supporter of Liverpool FC, was standing in Sheffield Wednesday’s Leppings Lane Terrace when disaster struck on 15 April 1989.
