What is this service?

Pregnancy termination affects 16.5 per 1,000 women in the United Kingdom, and while not everyone feels the need for support following an abortion, many women experience difficult emotions that may surface days, weeks, or years after the termination.

We offer both group and individual support for anyone seeking healing, or the opportunity to talk through difficult emotions following an abortion, so that they can face the future with renewed hope and a positive outlook.

Healing emotional hurt following an abortion is possible, and the process starts as soon as you are willing to say you would like some support.

Many have already been helped to come to terms with their termination, either with one-to-one or in a group, using a sensitive recovery programme called ‘Step by Step’. If you would like to find out more about post termination support for you or someone you love, please contact us either via the email address included on this page, or by calling 020 8540 7675.

It was so helpful to meet other women who have gone through the same thing - I'd been waiting for this for a while.
