[Abortion Rights IE @freesafelegal]

Criminalizing those who support and provide abortion care only puts more lives at risk and disproportionately harms those who are already marginalized and vulnerable.

[Abortion Rights IE @freesafelegal]

We stand in solidarity with Justyna Wydrzyńska and all the activists who work tirelessly to ensure that individuals have access to the reproductive healthcare they need and deserve.

[Abortion Rights IE @freesafelegal]

For me this trial is symbolically for anyone who ever provided support to a person in need. I feel I do not stand here alone. My friends have my back, but so do hundreds of women whom I haven’t yet had the chance to meet."

[Abortion Rights IE @freesafelegal]

“My own abortion was a breakthrough for me. I wouldn’t want to live in a world in which any woman is deprived of access to reliable information and simple human support. This has been my motivation in my activism, in my work.

[Abortion Rights IE @freesafelegal]

Justyna has expressed no guilt for helping, nor should she. “I am still going to help women. I don’t feel guilty. On the contrary, the sentence has made me feel I did the right thing.”

[Abortion Rights IE @freesafelegal]

We believe that every person should have the right to make their own decisions about their body, health, and future. Access to free, safe, legal, and local abortion care is a fundamental human right, and denying it is a violation of human dignity and reproductive justice.

[Abortion Rights IE @freesafelegal]

Abortion Rights Campaign strongly condemns the Polish court ruling that has found Justyna Wydrzyńska guilty for providing a woman in an abusive relationship with abortion pills.

Some storytellers are dissuaded from sharing because their story isn’t “compelling enough” which then makes people who have experiences just like them unable to see their very real and normal experience reflected. It’s okay to have a diversity of stories—it’s important even!

[Renee Bracey Sherman @RBraceySherman]

I can’t begin to tell you how exhausting it is for reporters to ask to speak to abortion storytellers and then not want to report their stories because they don’t fit their imagined caricature of someone having an abortion in some tragedy porn situation.

Unfortunately, we have to cancel tomorrow’s organisational Kerry for Choice meeting due to unforeseen circumstances (non-Covid lurgy). We’ll reschedule for January 2023, so keep an eye on our social media and newsletter for the updated details once we have finalised the date.

[Kerry for Choice @KerryForChoice]

Kerry for Choice is having an online meeting for new volunteers on Tuesday, 29th November, at 7 PM. Come along and find out how you can get involved. #FreeSafeLegalLocal

Email [email protected] for the details.

Please share with any pro-choice people you know in Kerry!

'The three day mandatory waiting period was certainly not intended to put most vulnerable people in danger. However, we have to face the fact that it causes grave risks to victims of domestic abuse, and therefore has to be removed from the legislation.'

Dr Gabriel Scally says there are three things patients want when things go wrong; the truth, an apology, and to know it won’t happen to anyone else.

Head of @IHREC says "current gaps in abortion care must be addressed so that #abortion is free, locally available across the island" & available in cases of fatal abnormality. A powerful submission to #AbortionReview #FreeSafeLegalLocal

[Leitrim for Choice @Leitrim4Choice]

A recent poll showed that over 80% of the French population supports the right to abortion. The results were consistent with previous surveys. The same poll also showed that a solid majority of people are in favor of enshrining it into the constitution.
