“I am so grateful to live in a country where this care is accessible.” 

Share your story as part of a new documentary film

MSI UK is working with a BAFTA and Emmy-winning production company on a documentary film that follows the stories of people considering and seeking a surgical abortion. We’re looking for people interested in sharing their story and being featured in the documentary. 

In this story, a client shares their experience accessing non-judgemental and supportive care with MSI UK.


I found out I was unexpectedly pregnant and knew pretty much straight away I wanted an abortion. I had a scan through my local early pregnancy unit as I was having a lot of pain, and they told me the pregnancy was viable so would have to contact an abortion provider.

“I never felt judged.”

MSI provided me with such wonderful, supportive care and I am so grateful to live in a country where this care is accessible. I never felt judged throughout the whole process.

“I am grateful to be exactly where I am.”

3 months on I do still think about what could have been, but I am also very grateful to be exactly where I am.

My partner and best friend have been so supportive and wonderful.

I’m very grateful to MSI – without them my life would be very different.
