A young woman called Tessa met us outside. the BPAS abortion centre in Bedford Square (now mercifully closed). She came from a war torn country and had had three previous abortions when we met her. She took one look at the pictures of the developing baby on our help leaflet - simple line drawings - and collapsed in tears."If only I knew how developed the baby was, I would never have aborted in the past." she said.
The images from our Leaflet
With help - she needed housing, specialist counselling and ongoing financial support - Tessa kept her baby, a daughter. She said she was the apple of her eye.
