An Oxford University study has linked the treatable deaths of 557 people to NHS privatisation. 557 We Own It campaigners, each representing one person whose death was linked to privatisation, stood in Parliament Square to urge politicians to reduce and ultimately end NHS privatisation.

We Own It

We Own It campaigns against privatisation and for 21st-century public ownership. We believe public services belong to all of us - from the NHS to schools, water to energy, rail to Royal Mail, care work to council services.

Privatisation keeps failing - but there are lots of brilliant examples of public ownership we can learn from in the UK and around the world. Public ownership is incredibly popular. It will save money for the public purse, improve people's lives and help us tackle the climate crisis.

We Own It is completely independent of any political party - our only policy is public services for people, not profit. The majority of our funders are individual donors.

We hold politicians to account, regardless of their political affiliation.
