The privatisation of our NHS is reaching it's end phase and left unchallenged we risk losing it altogether to privateers and corporations.

NHS England is intent on creating an American style, insurance based, 2 tier health care system which puts profit before people.

Those unable to pay will be left to fend for themselves and many will die as a result.

Gone will be the days when you can even rely on a 'free' ride to the hospital in an ambulance and all aspects of healthcare right down to accomodation and food costs will be chargeable.

Join us for a frank and informal open discussion about the issues affecting our NHS and the dire consequences to the majority of us if we sit back and do nothing.

Guest speakers and veteran campaigners from Keep Our St Heliler Hospital (KOSHH) will explain how they are fighting back and what we can do on the Island to protect our hospital and services.

(A bar will be available for refreshments)
