* Coaches and minibuses are being organised from around the country, see below for details of contacts in your area. If you are bringing a coach or minibus and are not listed below, please contact us
* Parking Your Vehicle. There are various options for parking, depending on how long you're staying. See below for the various options.
* Public Transport If you're coming by public transport, then you may want to get a "Travelcard" for Zones 1 and 2, which will allow you to use tubes, buses and trains to get to the various events throughout the day. It is possible to walk to the different venues, the estimated times are given, though it is quite a hike between the end of the march and the protest at St Pancras. You can often buy a Travelcard when you buy your train or coach ticket from your town.
* Got Spaces or Need a Ride? If you're driving to the demo and you've got spaces to take fellow protesters please let us know, or if you need a lift to London for the march, do get in touch and we'll try to help.

Coaches and Minibuses If you are organising transport and not listed here, please contact us. For details about coach and minibus parking, see the Parking section below.

PARKING YOUR VEHICLE

Car and minibuses You have various options for parking, depending on how long you're staying. One possiblity is to park close to the site of the protest near St Pancras, see Timetable page for details and link to map. Parking is free on Saturdays on many of the streets around there. From here you can take the Victoria Line from Euston or Kings Cross/St Pancras just 2 or 3 stops to Oxford Circus for the rally and the start of the march. After the protest at St Pancras, you can then drive to Conway Hall, just 5 minutes away, where parking is free for the rest of the day.

Another option if you're planning to stay until the evening is to park near Conway Hall where we have the evening info/social event. Parking is free around here after 1.30pm (2 hours max), so if you park after 11.30am, pay up til 1.30pm, you can then leave it there the rest of the day (or the weekend!). Then you can take the Central Line from Holborn just 2 stops to Oxford Circus for the rally and the start of the march. It's £3 an hour here though, so it's more expensive than the option above.

Coaches The coaches will be advised to drop off their passengers at Cavendish Square for the start of the march, and then to park near St Pancras for the protest and vigil later. We will have exact details or coach parking arrangements soon.

More details to come, please contact us if you have any questions.
