Sheffield Save Our NHS will be hosting a half day event of information, discussion and campaign planning.

Taking Back Our NHS

Saturday 12th March 2016, 10am - 2pm
The Roco, 342 Glossop Road, Sheffield. S10 2HW


Keynote speaker Dr David Wrigley, Carnforth GP, Member of BMA Council and GP Committee and longstanding KONP activist. Plus regional and local speakers, who will cover the situation in Sheffield, the parliamentary NHS Bill to reinstate the NHS, and the Junior Doctors' dispute; followed by guided discussion and action planning.

The NHS is reeling under the pressure of the new market structures and the financial restrictions introduced by the 2010-15 Coalition government and reinforced by the current Conservative government. What is the impact in Sheffield and what can we do about it?

The Junior Doctors dispute has shone a light on the discontent felt about the government's agenda by many NHS staff and provided a focus for showing support for the NHS. Find out the latest in the dispute and what can be done to build solidarity.

This event is part of national action called by Keep our NHS Public to mark the second Parliamentary reading on March 11th of the National Health Service Bill, introduced by Caroline Lucas MP (Green Party) and co-sponsored by the Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn MP.

All welcome to come along and contribute Refreshments and low cost lunch available.

Accessible venue.
