Hundred of protesters gathered outside the Adelaide and Meath Hospital in Tallaght, Dublin this afternoon to campaign for the retention of children's services.

Campaigners say the new National Children's Hospital at the Mater should not be to the detriment of existing services at the hospital, which incorporates the National Children's Hospital at present.

Richie O'Reilly from Tallaght Hospital Action Group says today's protest is only the beginning of the group's campaign.
