On 30th October 2010 families and friends marched from Trafalger Square to Downing Street to protest against custody deaths and abuses. This was the 12th annual protest organised by the United Families & Friends Campaign (UFFC).
The march, which took up one side of the road, was not policed at all. At Downing Street the police refused to take the open letter to the Prime Minister, despite pleading from the protestors.
The protest was organised by The United Families & Friends Campaign -- a coalition of families and friends of those that have died in the custody of police and prison officers as well as those who are killed in secure psychiatric hospitals.
