Durham Miners Gala Socialist Health Association

Join us at the Durham Miners Gala Saturday 8th July to celebrate 75 years of the NHS.
We have a fringe meeting on the eve of the event with some great speakers. The NHS was forged out of mass social movements and powerful political leadership. Thats what it will take to defend and rebuild it as a public service!

Time and place: Meeting 18.00-20.00 on 7 July, Old Town Hall on Market Place in Durham and please join us at our stall on the 8th.

SPEAKERS:

  • Mary Kelly Foy MP for City of Durham;
  • Alex Gordon President, RMT;
  • Jamie Driscoll, Mayor North of Tyne;
  • Allyson Pollock, professor of public health Newcastle University:
  • Jude Letham, Co-ordinator KONPNE;
  • Lesley Spillard, Vice Chair SHA.

To mark NHS75 the Socialist Health Association has produced a report, In Place of Profit which details the growing corporate take over of the NHS.

Do encourage comrades to join the SHA

If possible, please make a voluntary donation on our website to help with costs for the event.
