At The Regional Marches For Life taking place this weekend in Cork, Galway and Bundoran we will gather together to call for resources to be put in place to support women in unplanned pregnancy and to shine a spotlight on Ireland’s spiralling abortion rate.
We look forward very much to seeing you there. They will be wonderful family friendly events in addition to being very focussed on the important issues featured. Placards, face-painting, balloon-making and goodie bags for children will be provided.

Thank you for your help with this important effort. Thank you also for your continued support of the work of the Pro Life Campaign.
The Pro Life Campaign is strengthening its call to members of the Oireachtas to press the Minister for Health Stephen Donnelly to stop sanctioning the dangerous practice of ‘DIY’ remote consultation home abortions.
In a shocking new finding, 15% of women in the UK (aged 18-44) said they experienced pressure to go though with an abortion they didn't want to have. The finding are contained in research conducted for BBC Radio 4. The HSE here in Ireland acknowledged in a recent answer to a parliamentary question that coercion more likely to occur when abortion consultations happen remotely.
Take a moment to send an instant message to the Minister For Health urging to immediately stop telemedicine abortions now that the Covid 19 measures have been eased in every other area.
