Next Wednesday sees a national day of protest against the government's threatened plan to downgrade or close up to SIXTY hospitals across the UK. The protest will also take in concerns about the huge and increasing level of private-sector involvement in the NHS, which is siphoning off money needed for vital services.

Protesters will be descending on PARLIAMENT in LONDON for a lobby of MPs, called by the TUC (see the NHS Together link in our links section) - beginning at 11am, assembling at Westminster Central Hall.

*** If you can't make it up to London, there will be LOCAL PROTESTS, on the same day, outside Worthing Hospital in Lyndhurst Road from 12noon-2pm, and also possibly outside Southlands.
