The campaign has now expired but it's not too late to support this charity.

Abortion Support Network provides advice, support, information and funding for people forced to travel for an abortion from Ireland, Northern Ireland, Poland, the Isle of Man, Malta and Gibraltar. We give grants, when needed, towards the £400-£2000 cost of abortion travel.

Story

Every year thousands of women travel from the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland to England for abortions. These women have to pay travel costs and pay privately for their procedure, which costs anywhere from £400 to over £2000.

In both Northern Ireland (despite being part of the UK) and the Republic of Ireland, abortion is illegal. It is, however, legal for women to travel abroad for an abortion – if they have the funds.

Abortion Support Network provides financial assistance and accommodation to these women. We also provide practical information including how to arrange the least expensive abortion and travel. 

We're a tiny charity meeting a huge need, and have helped over 2000 people so far. Your donations will allow us to go on providing this vital service.
