Up to 1,000 people will march through Sheffield in a mass protest against cuts and changes putting the NHS ‘under threat’.

Sheffield Save Our NHS is co-ordinating the event on August 25 and 26, which is part of a larger procession led by mums’ group 999 Call for the NHS.

They are following in the footsteps of the Jarrow Crusade by marching 300 miles to highlight health cuts and privatisation.

Sheffield’s first altruistic organ donor Dr John Carlisle - who gave a kidney to a stranger last year - is backing the protest and encouraging all donors and recipients to take part.
