Free, fast access to skilled listening and counselling

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

Mums and babies housed

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

Free pregnancy tests

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.
