Abortion - Time for Change

40 years... 6.7 million abortions... the time for change is now!

Saturday 27th October 2007 is the 40th anniversary of the passing of the 1967 Abortion Act.

time for change brings together churches, professional bodies and pro-life organisations to mark this anniversary.

Please come and stand with us in remembering the 6.7 million unborn children who have died and the many thousands of others, especially women, who have been adversely affected.

There will be a rally in Old Palace Yard outside Parliament on Saturday 27th October followed by a march and a service of remembrance, repentance and healing at Westminster Cathedral. Other events around the country will also be advertised on this site.

Main Events planned for Saturday 27th October:
2:00pm - Rally in Parliament Square
3:00pm - March down Victoria Street
4:00pm - Service at Westminster Cathedral
5:15pm - Service at Westminster Chapel

The Human Tissue and Embryos Bill, expected to be introduced into Parliament after the Queen's Speech on 6th November, will open up the entire 1967 Abortion Act to amendment. Pro-choice MPs have pledged to liberalize the law and intend to mark the 40th anniversary of the 1967 Abortion Act this autumn with a push to bring in 'abortion on request' in the first three months of pregnancy.

The first stage of this battle is a government consultation being carried out by the House of Commons Science and Technology Committee into scientific developments relating to the 1967 Abortion Act. The closing date for written submissions was Monday, 3rd September 2007 and oral evidence sessions will commence in October.
