Hundreds of campaigners are expected to stage a protest against hospital cuts today.
The Save Navan Hospital Campaign has called on the residents of Trim to create an enormous letter ’H’ in the grounds of Trim Castle.
Peadar Toibin, campaign chairman, said the stunt would reveal the need for a properly functioning hospital in the country.
“We want to highlight the centrality of Our Lady’s Hospital Navan in the welfare of all the people of Meath,” said Mr Tobin, deputy mayor of Navan.
“We oppose strongly these dangerous and haphazard cuts that the HSE and this government are inflicting.
“Tens of thousands of people from the Trim area use Navan Hospital and we will give these people a chance to voice their opposition.”
He added that a mass rally would be held in Navan on October 30.
