Dublin Sinn Féin is launching our Healthcare for Dublin document on Tuesday 10th October in the Darndale Belcamp Village Centre at 2:30pm. Cllr Larry O'Toole will be joined by various colleagues from Dublin Sinn Féin including Mary Lou McDonald M.E.P.

The document will outline our vision for a better and more equitable Health Care system that provides equal access to health services by all, irrespective of income, gender, age, nationality, ethnicity, religion or ability. Our policy aims to protect people's health by putting primary care, health promotion, public health and community-based health services at the centre of healthcare provision in Dublin and nationally.

The launch of this policy document is particularly timely given that Sinn Féin will be holding a major national rally to push for radical action to address the crisis in the health service. This rally will take place in Dublin on October 21st next when Sinn Féin President Gerry Adams MP will be the keynote speaker.
