Fifty years on from from the 1967 Abortion Act, OU academic and researcher in abortion policy, politics and teenage pregnancy, Dr Lesley Hoggart, examines why there is still a stigma attached to women who have more than one abortion.
Challenging the stigma associated with abortions
In their own words: My abortion experience
To highlight the 50th anniversary of the Act being passed, as well as women’s current experiences of abortion, the research team has created a video collection based on their project’s findings on real women’s abortion experience.
Please note: these videos use actors to tell the stories from real life case studies about abortion experiences.
