Local residents are being urged to join a parade in support of their local hospital after health chiefs closed its only ward, leaving some dying patients without the support they needed.
The Edington Hospital, North Berwick, saw its seven-bed ward temporarily close last September after NHS Lothian decided to centralise staff to cover shortages.
The move sparked a wave of protests in the East Lothian town amid fears the community hospital would suffer a "creeping closure" as a series of reviews failed to produce any promise of a reopening date.
