Bradford will come to a standstill tomorrow when a one-minute's silence marks the 20th anniversary of the Bradford City Football Club fire disaster.

A remembrance service will commemorate the 56 people who died on May 11, 1985, when Bradford took on Lincoln City at Valley Parade.

Bradford Council will remember all those who perished with a service attended by leading community figures on Centenary Square at 11am.

City Hall flags will fly at half-mast as Lord Mayor Irene Ellison-Wood and a civic party from Lincoln pay their respects along with Council politicians and senior officers in an extended service.

Players and officials from Bradford City will also attend, along with members of West Yorkshire Fire Service and council employee Carl Dalton, who survived the blaze.

The Lord Mayor's Chaplain, the Reverend Paul Flowers, and Bradford City Chaplain, the Reverend Martin Short, will hold the memorial service and the City Hall bells will play "You'll Never Walk Alone" and "Abide With Me".

The Lord Mayor will lay a wreath on behalf of the city at The Disaster Memorial Sculpture in Centenary Square.

She said: "May 11 is a date that will forever live in the memory of the people of Bradford and is a time for us to reflect and remember all those affected."

The Bishop of Bradford, the Right Reverend David James will also give a blessing to close the service.
