This year is the 75th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz and in honour of that anniversary a giant 12x7 metre mural is being painted and displayed on a wall on the outside of the West Stand at Stamford Bridge as part of Chelsea FC’s Say No to Anti-semitism campaign. 

Renowned Israeli British street artist Solomon Souza will be painting the commemorative mural which includes images of Jewish football players and British POWs who were sent to Nazi camps. Solomon will be doing this from the safe and stable platform of one of GTAccess’s new Manitou 200ATJ booms. One of 55 new Manitou booms that have recently been added to our fleet which now numbers in excess of 2,000 platforms operating from 8 depots in the Midlands, South East and Wales.
