COMMUNITY ACTIVIST PASSES AWAY

Newcastle has lost a passionate political activist, with the death of former Greens councillor, Margaret Henry.

Ms Henry was in the frontline of the fight to save the Laman Street figs, and was a tireless campaigner against the removal of Newcastle’s heavy rail line.

Margaret Henry died after a battle with pancreatic cancer – she was 81.
