Pregnancy tests
Every month we support women as they face the possibility that they might be pregnant. By offering free pregnancy tests, we are accompanying women from the very first moment of their pregnancy journey. We saw a big increase in pregnancy test requests as the COVID-19 lockdown began.
New* clients supported
We support women, children and families through our counselling and skilled listening service, supported housing and practical support. In March 2020, here's how many clients we've helped. *housing clients may not be new
