CAMPAIGNERS gathered at a busy junction today to call for an improvement in working conditions within the NHS. 

NHS Workers United for Scotland unfurled a banner at the Charing Cross foot bridge, that called for the first minister Nicola Sturgeon to "hear our pleas".

And passing motorists tooted their horns in support.
