A parade is then due to commence at 3.45pm to Bridge Street, Circular Road, Old Bridge, Waterside, Killlowen Street, Old Bridge, Circular Road Millburn Road, Union Street and then Railway Place.

The rally has been organised by 
NIPSA (Northern Ireland Public Service Alliance), who will stand with trade unions and community organisations for peace and inclusion.

Speaking ahead of the rally, NIPSA Deputy General Secretary Patrick Mulholland said:

NIPSA emphasised that the real challenges facing workers are being felt in everyday life: When families can’t access the housing, healthcare or services they need, frustration grows. The answer is investment, fairness and decent public services, not turning communities against one another.”
