 Health workers are campaigning against cuts and job losses |
Campaigners against health cuts in Cornwall travelled to Cheltenham on Saturday to join a protest about health service cuts in the region. Stuart Roden, Unison representative in Cornwall, has travelled from the county to attend Saturday's march.
"We want to stop the privatisation of the NHS, stop the redundancies and stop the cuts," said Mr Roden.
On Friday 400 administration staff at the Royal Cornwall Hospitals Trust were told their jobs were at risk.
Managers say there will be a 30-day consultation period before any final decisions are made.
Receptionists, clerks and secretaries will bear the brunt of what the trust has called an "organisational restructure".
The move is part of the trust's plan to cut a projected �13m debt, one of the highest in the NHS.
