Abortion Care
If you are pregnant and considering an abortion, you can contact the British Pregnancy Advisory Service (BPAS). BPAS offers confidential pregnancy counselling and abortion care. This service is funded through the NHS and therefore free for most people living in the UK.
How to Book an Appointment
- Telephone: 03457 304 030
- Website: https://www.bpas.org
BPAS will help arrange an appointment at a date and time that is safe and suitable for you.
You do not need to see your GP first. You can refer yourself directly to BPAS for abortion care.
Note: BPAS may not be your nearest provider if you live outside of Hampshire/ Isle of Wight, but BPAS can direct you to your local provider.
