Ask your MP to choose life in the new Parliament
The 2024 General Election has ushered in a big change in politics. Not only do we have a new Labour Government after 14 years of Conservative rule, but the make-up of Parliament itself has changed significantly.
Why Do We Campaign?
Campaigning drives change by influencing policy, raising awareness and ensuring that the right to life is defended and protected.
At the heart of our mission is a commitment to advocating for the right to life. We campaign to create a society where every life is valued and supported, from conception to natural death.
Our campaigns focus on raising awareness, challenging harmful policies and providing practical support for those in need. By engaging with communities across the UK and lobbying our politicians, we aim to build a future that promotes a culture of life.
