Those who are not well enough to attend are asked to send letters, emails, faxes in support of the demo, if they are able to.

If you cannot come on the day, volunteer to help. Send them a FAX or an EMAIL on the day. Send a POSTCARD or LETTER.

Hi Free at last and all,

The organiser says that a remote protest is being created for the day to support the demo. A short message and email/faxes etc will be supplied.

So great to see people supporting this protest. It takes a lot for PWME to leave their home and protest and they need help/support like this.

I have written a letter to both DOH and the NHS Blood Service, I will e-mail on the day when the message is posted with the relevant e-mail addresses. Good luck to all those able to attend. Feels good we are coming together for this.

Are you coming from Chester or on the way?

Contact Susie as below

I am co-ordinating a free coach/minibus to arrive at Whitehall at 12 and leave at 3.30. We will be leaving Chester at 06.30/07.00 and can stop to pick people up at any motorway services (M6/ M1) along the way (might be able to go up M56 stopping at Lymm and Knutsford too). E-mail me (susiej1710@hotmail.com) with your mobile phone number and postcode if you can join us. Pass the message around please. Room for 49 people if it's a coach load, or 15 if it's a minibus.
