Campaign groups unite for Croydon’s May Day Rally

The annual Croydon Mayday March takes place on Saturday, May 4.

Organised by the Croydon Trade Union Council, the march begins at noon from a meeting point in Elmwood Road, West Croydon, and progresses to Coombe Road’s Ruskin House, the home of Croydon’s Labour movement in its various left-of-centre forms.

The march is always headed by a pipe band.

A rally at 1.30pm will include speakers from NHS anti-privatisation groups, the PCS trade union, the Roke School campaign group and Disabled People Against the Cuts.
