Alan FaheyOn Sunday 28th April 1974 members of the sixth form were taken by coach to Hyde Park London in order to join an anti abortion rally.
We had no choice whether or not to go as I recall and parents were charged one pound for the transport!
There were approximately 85,000 attendees and we were split into groups of about 5,000 for a silent March to Whitehall. We were barracked at various points along the way by pro abortion protesters.
This photo was in the Daily Express the following day.
