MARCH ON SATURDAY 29TH- SAVE OUR DGH

Eastbourne Trades Council is proud to be supporting the march and rally led by the GMB union but not just for GMB members: every member of the public, every patient and every member of staff should really be involved in fighting back to Protect our Hospital, to protect East Sussex community health services being lost during any forthcoming tendering process, and to protect the under-resourced and over-worked healthcare professionals who despite being treated appallingly never fail to provide the very best patient service delivery they possibly can.

There is now a real and present threat that the Accident and Emergency Department could be downgraded to a cottage hospital-style Minor Injury unit, and not available at night.

COME AND MARCH FOR OUR DGH- SATURDAY 29th NOVEMBER

The march will set off from Eastbourne Pier at 10.30am for a march through the town centre, followed by a rally at the Wish Tower green.

Trades Councils in the Community

Your union branch speaks up for your members and potentialmembers in the workplace. Whether it’s pay, rights at work, healthand safety or lifelong learning, your branch exists to get a better dealfor your members.

Unions also need to raise their voice in the world beyond the workplace when:
• the public services delivered and used by union members come under threat
• racists and fascists try to divide local communities
• local authorities seek to reduce democratic control of education or housing.

That’s where your local trades union council comes in. Trades councils bringtogether local union branches to campaign across a community on issuesthat matter to working people.

Facing closure?: Your trades council can provide practical support and solidarity.
Tackling racism? Your trades council can help unite local people against the haters.
Privatisation problems? Your trades council can help campaign for public ownership and democratic control.

Eastbourne Trades Council represents workers in public and private sector employment across the Borough of Eastbourne and the parish of Willingdon and Jevington.
