appeal for witnesses Piccadilly Circus Feb 15th

I was assaulted by police on Feb 15th and am looking for witnesses to help my case

I was at the Feb 15th demo/march in Piccadilly Circus around 6.30-7.30 pm, when the police decided to move in on demonstrators. At this time I was assaulted by two different coppers, and as a result my back was injured. I am having regular chiropractic treatment. I am going to try and sue the police for assault. As I have so far only got one witness to the direct assault, and another who saw me immediately afterwards in pain, I want to ask if there is anyone out there who saw me being assaulted. I am white, middle aged and female, and was wearing a big black fluffy coat and a purple hat and fluffy scarf. I had a small blue bag on my back. If you didn't see the assault but did at least witness the disgusting police action that evening, then a short report on that might help. I would really appreciate any help. Besides which, we all have to challenge the way certain sections of the police are now behaving, as it is getting really serious, and appears to be quite unlawful in many instances. Please try to write as objectively as possible. My e-mail is:  sarahcase@madasafish.com
Thanks.
