Large crowd turned out for the 8th annual March for Choice in the city centre.

They're campaigning for free, safe, legal and local abortion access in Ireland.

Today was the first march for choice since Ireland repealed the Eighth Amendment in 2018 by a margin of 66.4%.

Linda Kavanagh, spokesperson for the Abortion Rights Campaign, says termination of pregnancy is still out of reach for many.

"There's still a lot of people who are being left behind by this legislation, so we're here today to demand an end to the three-day waiting period and the refusal campaign," she said.

"We're an all-Ireland campaign, so we're marching to show solidarity with people in Northern Ireland as well," she added.
