NWCI at the March for Choice

Published: Friday, October 06, 2017

NWCI and many of our 180 member organisations joined the March for Choice on Saturday 30th September, to show our support for women who face difficult decisions in pregnancy. Now, more than ever, it is critical that the voices and experiences of women, couples, families and doctors are heard in this important national conversation.

The current focus on the Eighth Amendment provides an important opportunity to create a new vision for healthcare in Ireland. We in NWCI believe Ireland needs to work towards a comprehensive, integrated public healthcare system that prioritises and provides for all reproductive health needs. The public need to be offered real solutions for Constitutional change that allow for the complexity of real life.
