🚨 Urgent Update 🚨 Today, a woman in England faces sentencing for terminating her own pregnancy. It is truly disheartening to note that the maximum penalty she could receive is life imprisonment, which is one of the harshest punishments globally.

Isn't it about time we broke the silence on abortion? Abortion is common 1 in 3 women with at least one in her lifetime, Abortion saves lives, Abortion is necessary. Abortion happens every day, it will always exist. Let's work to ensure it's safe.
