Rethink urged over children’s hospital location

Lisa Flynn was one of a group of parents who travelled to Dublin yesterday to voice their opposition to the location of the new children’s hospital.

She had hoped to meet Taoiseach Enda Kenny when he was presented with a petition signed by 60,000 people opposed to the site being located at St James’s.

However, the small group of representatives of the Connolly for Kids Hospital campaign was told at the last minute that Mr Kenny was unavailable.
