Protest at Wexford General Hospital today

The ongoing protests over the closure of an operating theatre continue outside Wexford General Hospital later today.  Sinn Féin Cllr Anthony Kelly said that the protests would continue until operating theatre 2 was reopened and full services were resumed at the hospital. 

Following a meeting between hospital management and a Borough Council delegation which included Cllr Kelly during the week, Wexford Sinn Féin has reiterated that that these protests are not an attack on Wexford General or its hard working staff but rather an attempt to safeguard our local hospital from any form of downgrading. 

Today's protest will begin at 1.30pm outside the grounds of Wexford General.
