The 1967 Abortion Act that governs abortion law in the rest of the United Kingdom, has never been extended to Northern Ireland.

Abortion is only available where a woman's medical or physical health is at serious and grave risk.

The majority of women requiring a termination face the prospect and costs of travelling to England.

The Family Planning Association (FPA) in Northern Ireland is the only organization openly challenging the status quo.

For the first time, this project is starting to initiate public and professional dialogue on the abortion issue and is calling politicians to account on their commitments to women's rights.
