The last survivors are rescued from the slurry as the full horror of what has happened at Aberfan becomes clear
The Aberfan disaster shook the world - 116 children and 28 adults died on 21 October 1966 when a coal tip engulfed a junior school and surrounding homes. How could this happen? It’s a tale of unheeded warnings, broken promises, and a shattered community’s fight for justice.
Includes strong, first-hand testimony from both survivors and rescuers about the day disaster struck their small mining village.
