New NHS data shows a sharp decline in contraceptive access. Contacts with SRH services down almost 48% in a decade. Funding cuts and service reductions are leaving women without choice. We need investment and innovation now.

As Baby Loss Awareness Week ends, we reflect on the words of MP @bellribeiroaddy.bsky.social : there is no hierarchy of grief. Every experience of pregnancy loss - miscarriage, stillbirth, abortion - deserves compassion and care.

We need to bring abortion legislation in to the twenty-first century so that we can provide the best possible care for all women in the UK who need it.

From the first UK birth control clinic in 1921, to the pill, IUDs, emergency contraception, and now pharmacy provision — access has come a long way. But too many people still struggle to get the contraception that’s right for them.

We need more choice, better access, & innovation

On Tuesday, MPs voted 379 - 137 to decriminalise women accused of ending their own pregnancies.

This is a landmark moment for women’s rights and the most significant change to our abortion law since the 1967 Abortion Act was passed.

Thank you to all who worked with us on this essential change.

A decade of campaigning to change abortion law but we’re being silenced by TfL at our final hurdle.

In a few weeks MP’s will vote on amendment NC1 to the Crime and Policing bill. An amendment that will prevent the traumatic events shown on our ads.

This ad isn't real. We mocked it up. Why? Transport for London rejected our campaign material because the advertisement "𝙢𝙖𝙙𝙚 𝙣𝙚𝙜𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙫𝙚 𝙧𝙚𝙛𝙚𝙧𝙚𝙣𝙘𝙚𝙨 𝙖𝙗𝙤𝙪𝙩 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙥𝙤𝙡𝙞𝙘𝙚".

You can read more about amendment NC1 and why we're all supporting it in the joint briefing here - bpas-campaigns.org/wp-content/u...

So that's at committee stage - NC1 at report stage (where votes happen with all MPs) is this below. There's an issue with the @houseofcommons.parliament.uk web page for the amendment but it's on the list of amendments issued every night. 50 organisations and 116 MPs are supporting NC1.

We're calling on MPs to do one simple thing...

📢 Support amendment NC1 📢

Ask your MP to represent you in asking for women to be removed from an archaic law that was written before women even had the right to vote. bpas-campaigns.org

Yesterday, across England and Wales, 190 ads went live in support of our campaign to reform our cruel and archaic abortion law and protect women and girls from...

🚫 Life imprisonment
🚫 Arrests straight from hospital wards
🚫 Homes searched
🚫 Children taken away

We were incredibly proud to stand alongside @gemmaclark.bsky.social to deliver her petition calling for abortion law reform today at @10dowingstreet.bsky.social.

Campaigners have today delivered a petition signed by over 100,000 UK residents calling on parliament to reform the abortion law.

Let's debunk some myths about abortion.

Does abortion lead to infertility?

“Across the rest of the UK, women are able to access this care closer to home – it is deeply unjust that Scottish women are left behind.” - Heidi Stewart, CEO of BPAS.

Over 20,000 runners at the biggest London Landmarks Half Marathon ever - and #TeamChoice showed up strong!💪

They’ve smashed their £4.5k goal, raising £6.7k+ for BPAS.

So many thanked us on the course - a powerful reminder of why we fight for choice.💜

This June, one of our dedicated team members, Gail, is taking on an incredible challenge - climbing Mount Kilimanjaro to raise funds for BPAS.

Over eight days, she will push herself physically and mentally, all in support of ensuring access to reproductive healthcare.

One in three women will have an abortion in their lifetime. Their stories and experiences matter.

Today and always, we are here if you need us.
