Spread the word about the NHS demo

(01/10/07) With just over a month to go until the NHS national demonstration, UNISON is urging members to spread the word.

The event takes place in London on 3 November, with a march along the Embankment followed by a rally in Trafalgar Square.

It is being staged under the NHS Together umbrella of health trade unions, which are calling on supporters throughout the UK to grasp the opportunity to come together and show how much the health service is valued.

Karen Jennings, UNISON head of health, said: "We want your help to encourage as many members and campaign supporters as possible to join us on the march and rally in a mass show of support for the NHS -- a world-class public service that takes care of our health and gives us all peace of mind.

"Help us campaign to defend the NHS and to celebrate its founding principles. Join the demonstration and send a strong message to the government that big business and the profit motive has no place in our health service."

There will be high profile speakers, quality music and entertainment in Trafalgar Square, so come along with colleagues, family and friends.

More details can be found on our Keep the NHS Working campaign pages, along with new publicity materials produced by UNISON to help members spread the word about the demonstration and make the day an unrivalled success.
