Want to know about how we support women facing unexpected pregnancy journeys? Take a look at last month’s numbers and the difference that can be made when a woman has space to talk freely and get the right support for her…
240
In December, 393 people reached out to our Helpline and 240 of those went on to have qualified, client-led counselling sessions, finding a place to talk safely and be heard.
Whatever is going on for you around a pregnancy, past, present or future, we’re here to listen.
SPOTLIGHT:
Of the women who shared what their main barrier to continuing a pregnancy was, 54% said it was managing a new baby as well as their existing children.
70% of the people we spoke to were feeling anxious or worried about the pregnancy.
20% of the women sharing wellbeing issues were living with domestic abuse or had suffered rape.
170
Last month, 170 mums and babies found a place of safety and sanctuary to live, who would otherwise be homeless, unsupported, or at risk.
1,264
Imagine having a friend who’s with you from day one. In December, 41 women a day asked for a free, discreet pregnancy test. This enabled women to reach out early for support and find someone to walk with them on their pregnancy journey.
100%
In December, 100% of the people surveyed said that speaking to one of our Helpline listeners by text, phone call or email was helpful to them.
"I would like to say a big thanks for the help you’ve given me x!"
