Pats’ own words

“We were determined to attend the Hardest Hit rally in Edinburgh. Determined, in spite of disability, to stand with the others who had made the long and difficult journey. Determined to show we were united as one voice against the vicious cuts we are all enduring. We knew there were many thousands who couldn’t make it. Disability, ill health, providing care, or cost would prevent them coming. We made it.

To the many there and those who came in spirit……….this petition is for us all”.

It was an extremely good and well-thought-out petition.

There were about 5/6 along similar lines but Pat wanted to try bring them all together under one. Several of the organisations are onboard too, to help raise awareness and sending it to their mailing lists.

Any help from those of us here would be appreciated.

Thanks everyone. Pat is delighted at the response. Total as typing this stands at 878 , not bad at all for a day and a half.

Support has been coming in from groups/organisations who will be sending the details out in their next newsletters and mailing lists. This will happen over next few weeks.

If anyone has ideas on how to spread the word further afield please say so.
