Protests outside children's hospital

Two separate demonstrations were held today in protest at cutbacks at Our Lady's Children Hospital in Crumlin.

The Campaign Against Cutbacks in Crumlin organised a silent protest outside Leinster House while the Oireachtas Family Day is taking place. The group asked people to place a teddy bear outside the Dáil to symbolise the children.
