Standing in Piccadilly Gardens holding a 'Stop Putin, Stop War' sign has become a normal Saturday for Martyn Chymera.
It didn't used to be - a year ago today, Martyn was perhaps more likely to be spotted among the throngs of shoppers crowding into the city centre than organising a rally. But his life - along with millions of Ukranians and their relatives lives - changed last February when Russian troops invaded Ukraine, resulting in a bloody war that rages on.
Since then, Martyn has spent every Saturday in Piccadilly Gardens showing his support for Ukraine. Today, on his 51st rally, he said that Ukrainians still need our support as much as ever.
