A rally is set to take place in the city centre next week, focusing on disability and mental health services
It's being organised by the Galway branch of Disability and Mental Health Alliance Ireland
The group is lobbying for disability and carers' allowances to be increased above the poverty line, as well as increased funding for special education support in schools and increased funding for mental health services.
It will take place on Saturday, November 15th, at the Liam Mellows Statue near the top of Eyre Square and will run from 2-4 pm.
Organiser Claire Long says they want as many people as possible to participate.
