The Infected Blood Memorial Committee hosted webinars in July 2026 to update the public on their progress and share proposals for the UK Memorial. The Committee, composed of individuals with lived experience, has focused on delivering commemorative events and now prioritizes memorial locations. Proposed memorials will be established in Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland, England, and at Treloar’s school, with the UK Memorial in England. London is the preferred location based on community feedback, though no single site satisfies all members. The Committee outlined five guiding principles: Truth, Justice, and Reflection; Remembrance and Recognition; Inclusivity and UK-Wide Accessibility; A Living and Evolving Space; and Transparency and Stewardship. The public is invited to review the principles and provide feedback via a questionnaire by 10 August 2026.
