We are a mix of mothers and mothers-to-be who have lived in the E15 hostel from a few months to 3 years. Having been told this would only be temporary...
Reproductive justice means support for people who choose to become parents, too. The Focus E15 Mum's campaign in Stratford has been waging war on Newham council's attempts to rehouse them out of borough (and out of London) due to cuts. Sign their petition against their eviction:
Imagine having to travel to another country just to access a safe, legal abortion? Navigating your way through the problems of sorting travel and acommodation, finding childcare, taking time from work, scraping the cash together... And when you finally reach the clinic there's one more problem; a bunch of picketers.
Mara Clarke, director of ASN says;
The women who call @AbortionSupport Network are so desperate they need to call strangers in another country and ask for money for abortion. But hey, protestors, go ahead and make them feel worse.
Access to safe and legal abortion varies from completely accessible to completely banned. Explore the laws in different countries with the Centre for Reproductive Rights' excellent map.
keepyourboehneroutofmyuterus: “prolongedeyecontact: “ transreprojustice: “ A lot of people when they hear the terms “prochoice”, “reproductive rights” or even “reproductive justice” only think of...
Abortion rights aren't just important for women but for everyone with a uterus. Clue yourself up on the importance of abortion rights to people who are transgender or don't identify with a binary gender.

And let us know if you've read, or written, about this and we'll add it to the list
Live in or visiting a country without access to safe abortion? Women on Web provide online access to medical abortion pills, as well as information about how women can access these medicines in their countries. You can print out stickers giving information on safe abortions from their website. Sticking these up on your trip might just save a woman's life.
Or you can spread the word about @abortionpil through social media to help get the word out there. http://www.womenonwaves.org/en/page/1036/in-collection/2593/safe-abortion-stickers
Action 6: Sign up to Brook's Sex Positive petition for great sex education
Real choice requires high quality sex education for young people so they can make informed choices about sex and everything that goes with it. Sign Brook's petition to support 21st century sex education: http://www.brook.org.uk/index.php/sex-positive-home
Action 4: Go outside.
If you're in Cardiff there's a pro choice match happening today - 11am starting from City Hall. In London the mybellyismine campaign has a workshop on the south bank followed by an event on the Hungerford bridge. Somewhere else? It's International Women's Day. There are amazing events happening right across the UK and the world.

Action 5: Read the facts on the Guttmacher Institute website
Know the facts! The Guttmacher Institute is an amazing source of facts and stats about reproductive choice. Go lose yourself it for a few hours this Sunday afternoon, and bookmark it in readiness for the next time you end up arguing with an anti-choicer - http://www.guttmacher.org/
Action 3: Sign up to the My Belly Is Mine thunderclap
Tomorrow is International Women's Day. In solidarity with those in Spain fighting repressive abortion legislation, sign up to the @MyBellyIsMine #IWD14 thunderclap to raise awareness about what's happening in Spain: https://www.thunderclap.it/projects/9268-my-belly-is-mine
Action 2: Join Abortion Rights
If you're not already a member, join Abortion Rights, the national pro-choice campaign who work tirelessly to defend and extend a woman's right to abortion.
They rely on grassroots funding from their members to be able to continue to make a difference in campaigning for abortion rights.
We're asking people to donate a small (or large) sum for every day that 40 Days for Life spend outside abortion clinics this spring.
At Easter we'll add up all the pennies, and let 40DfL know how much money they've helped us raise for a great #prochoice cause. We're sure they'll be delighted,
Here is one of the leaflets 40 Days for Life are handing out to people outside abortion clinics in the UK. They say they can ‘provide you with sound medical advice’ and then go on to give false information about abortion like claiming it gives people breast cancer and makes them infertile.
Also, particularly nasty is the suggestion that having an abortion will cause suicidal thoughts, eating disorders and drug abuse and 'damage to maternal instinct and to bonding process with any other children you have'.
Take a stand against lying to pregnant people about their bodies and support our campaign.
This is what 40 days for life were handing out last year. It's full of lies! If there's a 40dfl picket near you this year please try to get your hands on their leaflets and send us and edforchoice a scan or the photo of them. xx
Action 1: Wear the pro-choice twibbon.
It's an easy one to get the ball rolling. If your twitter avatar isn't already sporting it, head on over to http://twibbon.com/support/40-Days-of-Choice and get yourself one.
Don't forget to try it out with a tweet or two, and let all your followers know about #40daysforchoice.
40 Actions for Choice
40 days for life are back.... But so are we!
This Lent we're suggesting a pro-choice action for every day, and we're raising money for Abortion Support by asking you to give a sum for every day that 40dfl spend standing outside clinics.
Follow along here on tumblr, and over on twitter, where we're 40daysofchoice
