Bryony, Bryn, Lesley and Guy are travelling 1000km by our own power in October for the Abortion Support Network (ASN). ASN provides advice on travelling for abortion, financial assistance towards the costs, and accommodation for those forced to travel across Europe for abortion care from Ireland, Northern Ireland, the Isle of Man, Malta, Gibraltar and Poland.

We aim to swim, cycle, run and walk 1000km collectively, covering the distance between Lodz, Poland and Amsterdam, the Netherlands – a journey some of ASN's clients have to make to access abortion care. 

If you can, please make a donation here and support our challenge! Your money will make a difference to people supported by ASN, who share their experiences:

"I am emailing from the Republic of Ireland because I need to go to England to have an abortion but I do not have the money to do so. I am really in need of some assistance as I am very stuck since I lost my job due to Covid and me and my partner are both struggling for money. My parents know but do not support what I am doing so they won’t help at all."

"We would like to thank you sincerely for your indescribably great help and kindness… the procedure and everything connected with it went smoothly and successfully. All your help and support, financial, mental, organisational and much more was incredible. I don’t want to write that our pregnancy was a matter of life and death, but actually it was. You gave us a chance for further life. I don’t know what else to say, we are still so shocked and grateful that there is still such a thing as genuine, honest kindness and selflessness “just like that” in this world, and that we have experienced it in such a colossal measure from you."

We really appreciate any donation you can give, and we have set an ambitious target of £1000 because we believe all pregnant people should have the right to make choices for themselves about their bodies, their families and their futures.
