7/11 tree planting invite Leeds
3 trees will be planted in Cross flatts park Beeston Leeds a a "symbolic gesture." of solidarity with the Beeston community and
it's loss. it will be attended by MP and Secretary of State for International Development Hilary Benn, lord maypr of Leeds
Mohammed Iqba.
The tree planting will hopefully bridge gaps within the community and help symbolise the loss suffered by the community on the
day.
3 of the suicide bombers regularly visited the park to play cricket and football and local leaders hope this will help bridge the
gap
the ceromony will be followed by a 2 minute silence at 12 o clock
All are invited to attend and show solidarity.

It's because most of those who died in London were white and non-muslim. After all, we have to remember that muslims are always victims and could never do any wrong.

I think it’s a fitting gesture (if you want to take into account the number of people killed on ‘7/7’ it would be a lot more than that –it just depends on your geographical restrictions, so for Beeston three appropriate)

best,
