In St Michael's churchyard, in Madeley is a very important grave. It's that of Charles Arthur Turner - a boy who died whilst playing in the industrial landscape. This is a sad but very important story, which you can read below ~
'Many #civilians are picked up for alleged transgressions as minor as speaking #Ukrainian or simply being a young man in an #occupied region, and are often held without charge. Others are charged as terrorists, combatants, or people who “resist the special military operation.”
'Hundreds are used for #slave labour by #Russia ’s military, for digging #trenches and other fortifications, as well as mass #graves .'
This stunning mosaic gravestone is tucked away in St Michael's churchyard in Madeley, Shropshire. It belongs to Charles Arthur Turner, who died tragically. I've written all about him, and his mother below. He deserves to be remembered 💚
