OXFORDSHIRE health union representatives joined thousands of campaigners marching in London today to express their concern over NHS cuts and privatisation.
People from across the country were meeting in Westminster to lobby MPs over health trust deficits and hospital department closures.
The rally has been organised by NHS Together, an alliance of unions and organisations representing NHS staff.
Patricia Marquis, the Royal College of Nursing's area manager for Thames Valley, said 20 union leaders from Oxfordshire were attending.
She said: "The issues have not changed - we are talking about funding issues affecting the NHS in Oxfordshire and cuts to NHS services, including plans to downgrade the Horton Hospital.
"There was a similar general lobby of the county's MPs earlier this year, and we hope to meet as many of them as possible again to keep these issues high on the agenda."
