A COACH-LOAD of campaigners from Stroud will join a huge national demonstration in London to speak out for the future of the NHS.

The #OurNHS protest will take place at 12noon on Saturday March 4 and is organised by Health Campaigns Together and The People's Assembly Against Austerity.

Local campaigning group Stroud Against the Cuts have put on a bus to take a group from the Five Valleys to the capital.

They will join thousands of others to call for a fully funded, publicly owned, NHS and social care service, demand no cuts, closures or privatisation and call for an end the pay restraint for NHS staff.

The demonstration will assemble at Tavistock Square at noon and march to Parliament.

The coach will leave at 9am. Tickets are priced at £10 standard (subsidised) or £15 'solidarity price'. They are available here.

If you would like to attend but can't afford the £10 ticket price, please contact James Beecher on 07734 058789 - they have kept some seats aside.
