A PRESTON councillor has invited people to meet at Preston's Peace Garden on Saturday morning to give thoughts to all those involved in the Kosovo conflict.

Councillor Albert Richardson said: "Everybody wants all the sides involved to stop the fighting and start talking.

"This won't be a council-run event or a religious gathering a such, but a moment to reflect on the conflict.

"I hope people will gather around 10.30am.

"Some may wish to say a prayer while those people who don't go to church may want to say a few words.

"If I have to stand there myself, I will."

The Peace Garden is situated at junction of Ringway and Friargate.
