Hundreds of people have taken part in a weekend of protests against the building of a £180m cancer centre in the north of Cardiff.
The hospital was given planning permission in 2017 to be built on land in Whitchurch but concerns had been raised about the impact on ecology and the local environment. The new centre, which includes a hospital, is planned to be built on a greenfield site known as the Northern Meadows between Whitchurch Hospital and Asda at Coryton.
