Saturday 10th April, 12.00, Embankment
Rally at 14.00 in Trafalgar Square
This demonstration is set to coincide with the calling of an election where all the main parties are threatening deep cuts in our public services. Called by the National Pensioners Convention and backed by most Trade Unions it is likely to be large. Join us on the NHS contingent:
Look out for the banner “Fight for the NHS”!
Meet at 12 noon at the corner of Embankment and Middle Temple Lane- (see map above)
Or those who find walking difficult can join us in Trafalgar Square.

Regular planning meeting but with a focus on the Day of Action (29th April 2010). All are welcome.
We are going to have a day of action for the Whittington on Thursday 29th April and would like workplaces, surgeries, nurseries, housing associations etc. to organize events and hold photo opportunities during the day. We can come round and take photos of the events you organise with a view to creating a montage for the website and distribution to the press.
Please let us know what you can do. We have posters and badges available so please let us know if you need some.
The focal point of the day will be a rally outside the Whittington from 12.00 until 14.00. This is an opportunity to remind North Central London NHS that this is our hospital, not theirs, and to show our support for the workers and patients of the Whittington.
You can see a list of the events planned so far, and confirmed speakers for the rally, here: http://dwhc.org.uk/doa/
Please come along if you can.
Lynne Featherstone, Liberal Democrat MP for Hornsey & Wood Green, has arranged a public meeting with, among others, Rachel Tyndall (Chair of the North Central London (NCL) review panel.)
This is an opportunity to ask more about the proposals and demand proper consultation.
