A growing number of healthcare staff in Newry are taking their own actions to protest the catastrophic manmade famine and stand in solidarity with our colleagues in Gaza.

As the images of emaciated babies and children horrify people around the world, midwives, nurses, doctors and other healthcare workers began a rolling 24 hour fast during the week beginning 28th July.

In Gaza, healthcare workers are working in horrific conditions and showing true humanity as they continue to help the starving and wounded despite having to go without food themselves.

We are asking people to support our fast and to help us send life saving aid to Gaza.
