What people tell us...

My boyfriend is angry with me for getting pregnant, but I don’t know what to do - I'm sure I'd regret having an abortion.

I’m struggling so badly after my abortion. I don’t know why I had it ... I felt scared and pressured into having it. Now I regret having it - I feel so empty.

Thank you for supporting me - it was so helpful to talk to someone and not be judged.

My partner says I'll have to move out if I don't get an abortion - please help me.

Thank you - I really appreciated speaking to someone who was unbiased either way and let me make my own choices.

I felt suicidal after my abortion and I couldn't see any way forward. But after talking with your team I can see there's hope.

After talking with you I decided to go ahead with the pregnancy. I've felt emotionally stable ever since we spoke.

I didn't realise until I'd had space to talk it all through, but abortion isn't an option for me. Thank you for your support.

I'm very grateful for how you supported me with my unplanned pregnancy and helped me find support in my local area.
