March demo
Thousands join march to save the Whittington
Up to 5,000 people marched through the streets of Islington in the pouring rain on 16 March in an amazing display of unity to stop the proposed cuts at the Whittington Hospital. The demonstration received lots of media coverage, including BBC News, ITV London News, LBC Radio, Camden New Journal, Guardian letters, Sunday MIrror, Ham and High and Islington Tribune.
