HEALTH campaigners and trade unions marched today to celebrate 75 years of the  NHS.

Hundreds set off with their union banners from Aneurin Bevan’s birthplace in Charles Street, Tredegar, and marched to Bedwellty park.

The Wales TUC organised Bevan Day marked the birthday of the NHS, but also celebrated the wave of industrial action for fair pay and conditions.
