The Telegraph recently launched an attack on crisis pregnancy centres
Pro-life pregnancy counsellors are doing an heroic job, says SPUC.
SPUC was commenting in the light of the Telegraph newspaper's attack, in concert with pro-abortion campaigners, on crisis pregnancy centres manned by pro-life counsellors.
Paul Tully, SPUC's general secretary, commented: "In our experience, on the whole, crisis pregnancy centres are doing an heroic job, in the face of concerted and deceitful opposition from representatives of the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists (RCOG) and the avaricious abortion industry which the RCOG represents."
