“It’s my right to make that decision for myself and my body.”  

Claire’s story

“I am beyond grateful of the fact that in the UK we have access to safe and legal abortion – a right that many people throughout the world are not afforded.”

I was 25 when I found out I was pregnant. My partner lived abroad, and neither of us wanted a child at that point in time. The decision to have an abortion was a no-brainer.

I contacted my GP and was put in touch with MSI, whose staff were incredibly attentive, diligent and kind throughout the whole process. I had a medical abortion and the whole process went smoothly.

I am beyond grateful of the fact that in the UK we have access to safe and legal abortion – a right that many people throughout the world are not afforded.

I have not for one moment regretted my decision, and I feel it’s necessary to share everyday examples of the decision to have an abortion.

It’s my right to make that decision for myself and my body. Thank you to MSI for facilitating that decision.
