Human chain formed on Westminster Bridge

Muslim women gathered on the Westminster Bridge to form a human chain, linking arms to show solidarity with its victims.

The women wore blue as a symbol of hope and people from a variety of backgrounds took part in the event which was organised by Women’s March on London.

 

Fariha Khan, 40, a GP said: "The feeling of what happened here on Wednesday was really strong. We thought of the ordinary people who were here and were mown down, standing here like this, it was very overwhelming.”
