Sandwell Hospital in West Bromwich is one of the sites run by the trust

Sandwell and West Birmingham Hospitals NHS Trust, which runs the City, Sandwell and Rowley Regis hospitals, is cutting 800 jobs to save up to �20m.

Unison branch secretary Chris Rickards said the protest was not only about the job cuts but also about a lack of information and a change in rotas.

She added staff were very distressed. A march will also be held on Dudley Road.
