 Healthcare is a right not a privilege! Following on from the success of the March last 29th March and representative Conference 26th April the Public Health Care Campaign believes that we should continue the pressure. If we don't stand up for our rights and a better health service we won't get it.

For a first hand account of the experience of an elderly woman in the Mater this week see this link:- http://ballymunsocialist.wordpress.com/ by D_D - PHSC Sun Sep 28, 2008 13:25 Message from Janette Byrne, former cancer patients and spokesperson for Patients Together : by Meshell Suit - NUN Mon Sep 29, 2008 00:57 Seems to me that there is a lot more that should be 'happening' within OUR Health Service. by kim Tue Sep 30, 2008 13:37 Having recently brought my toddler to Aand E at the Lourdes, waiting 5 hours and then being charged 60 quid for it I definately want to go to this.. by D_D - Public Health Service Campaign Tue Sep 30, 2008 14:40 The flyer has those details. But it's OK to be tired. by D_D - DCTU Fri Oct 03, 2008 17:51 Two city centre postering expeditions: by D_D - Public Health Service Campaign Tue Oct 07, 2008 15:18 VOLUNTEERS by polly ticks Thu Oct 09, 2008 13:39 THE FAMILY of a woman who died in the toilet of the AE unit at Dublin's Mater hospital earlier this year after waiting hours for a bed has urged the public to turn out in large numbers for a protest march against health service cuts on Saturday. by D_D - Public Health Service Campaign Thu Oct 09, 2008 17:20 Full marks to the unknown volunteers for the work of distributing the leaflets for the march around the Infirmary Road area. However it seems that some of them at least do not have the heading indicating the organisers of the march, or have had the heading removed. There has been one complaint (the contact details were left on) about anonymous leaflets and anonymous events; an understandable one. by D_D Fri Oct 10, 2008 11:00 Running order: by bb Sat Oct 11, 2008 15:36 via DCI cam. |

Hi !
RSF will be present on this march - we were at the last one (Saturday 29 March 2008 http://11sixtynine.blogsome.com/2008/03/30/saturday-mar...blin/) and will have as many as we can muster on this one as well - full marks to the organisers.
Thanks!
Sharon.
RSF member on the Dublin 'Health March' , Sat 29 March 2008.
meself and a good few mates will be going on this
hope tens of thousands turn out for it and we can close the city centre down for a few hours as that might help put pressure on cowen and his rich pals to do something about it
fair play to the unions for organsing it and to republicans for supporting it
“Following on from the success of the March last 29th March”!!!!!!!
You predicted 70,000 would turn out for the last march and less than 6,000 actually did. How do you quantify this as a success? What work has been done since then? Have campaigners been in the areas most affected by the health crisis? Not fuken likely! As was pointed out previously, the organisers simply aren’t politically capable of harnessing the genuine anger out there about the health service because they have no connection with the affected communities.
Still, it won’t be a complete waste of time, the Swp, PBP, Socialist Party etc… will get a chance to sell some papers and recruit new members.
Prove me wrong.
The organisers welcome the co-operation of those who have connections with their 'communities'. They could contribute greatly to the success of 11th October by employing their political capabilities and organising a large contingent from their particular community. From Cabra, say.
A copy of our Newsletter outlining our work since 29th March can be had from healthcampaign@gmail.com.
We are hoping that we can count on your attendance at our upcoming peaceful rally in Dublin. Held during World Animal Week, ARAN is using this opportunity to call for tougher animal protection laws in the new animal welfare bill and to raise nationwide awareness of cruelty inflicted upon animals in Ireland. This important rally is sure to create a positive frenzy on the streets of Dublin and with the national media and we hope you will be a part of this exciting experience!
We have been very fortunate to receive countless offers of support from various kind people across the country — thank you to everyone who offered to help; we cannot overly state how much we appreciate your support! There is still people out there whom we need to hear from, is it you? To make this event the biggest and best it can possibly be, we are once again asking for your help. Please promote the event to your family, friends, and co-workers—you would be surprised the amount of people you can reach by simply telling them about the rally!
To help you spread the word more easily, we have produced a snappy 1 minute promotional video of our rally. Please note this video is not gory, but is a perfect tool for encouraging anyone who wants to put an end to cruelty to animals to attend the event. Plus it features exciting footage of ARAN’s previous 2006 rally which was also a tremendous success!!!
Click here to see the short 1 minute video. Once you have finished watching this, please send this video clip to as many people as you can. Post it on your BEBO, My Space and Facebook and anywhere else where you think it will reach people! Please, don’t leave it to someone else, be pro-active, help us spread the word and ensure that this event will be one of the best we have held for animals in 10 years. Without you’re support we cannot make a difference and the animal abusers will go unnoticed and it is they who will have the last laugh!
