The NUM, a cross-party Senedd group and Welsh businesses have donated 25 vehicles since the conflict began in 2022, with funds being raised for five more.

Chris Kitchen, miner at Wheldale colliery, West Yorkshire, and NUM secretary since 2007: "We came straight out. I was 17 - to me, at that age, it was just another dispute. I took my lead from my dad, who worked there, and some of the older guys. They didn't seem concerned… We'd resolve the dispute and be back at work."

The NUM sent protesters - known as flying pickets - to disrupt and pressure working miners.

Arthur Scargill vetoed a national ballot on the strike, allowing regional NUM votes instead.

On 3 March,1984, NUM leaders voted to end the dispute without an agreement with the NCB and instructed members to go back to work.
