This is amazing news! The distress caused by anti-choice people standing outside abortion clinics is totally unacceptable. These people promoted stigmatising and factually inaccurate information with the intention of creating a barrier to care at clinic gates.

What happened at the RSM conference space last week is an excellent example of why Abortion Talk and other projects and organisations working to destigmatise abortions (like @DrsforChoice_UK and @mybody_mylife) are desperately needed. Abortion isn't a dirty word.
We want to make it clear that we do not blame the staff on the floor, who worked very hard all day and were clearly acting on instructions from management.
Posters ‘censored’ at abortion care conference, doctors’ campaign group says theguardian.com/world/2022/oct…
We call on @RoySocMed to reverse as a matter of urgency - abortion is a normal part of women’s healthcare and should be treated as such. This is completely outrageous.
Incredulous that this is happening in the UK right now. There is a conference happening at the Royal Society of Medicine @RoySocMed called Abortion: Excellence in Care (@BSACP's annual conference). Except...they aren't allowed to use the word 'abortion' in the building.
This is how we’ve been allowed to show where we are

The outcomes we wish to see from RSM are a public apology for the stigmatising incident; a public statement acknowledging the impact of abortion stigma on patients & providers; & commitment to normalising abortions to destigmatise abortion care.
Health pros (& RSM staff) can play a key role in normalising abortions, through the way they frame & present abortion care. One approach is to show abortion as part of normal, routine healthcare, but institutional support & structural change are essential for this to be embedded.
Research (linked) shows everyday discourse surrounding abortion is frequently negative, presupposing shame & distress. This is despite abortions being a common gynaecological procedure. Sadly, this happens a lot, even in medical institutions. sassproject.org.uk/normalising-ab…
The letter outlines the stigmatising incidents that occurred at the RSM building that we were attending for a conference in early Oct. RSM have previously stated that they are investigating the claims. We have not yet been contacted. We await their response to the investigation.
Yesterday we published a joint open letter (with @DrsforChoice_UK and @mybody_mylife) that was sent to @RoySocMed. We felt that it was important to make this an open letter so that abortion stigma can be discussed publicly. The letter can be read here: 👇abortiontalk.com/news-1/open-le…
This is amazing news! The distress caused by anti-choice people standing outside abortion clinics is totally unacceptable. These people promoted stigmatising and factually inaccurate information with the intention of creating a barrier to care at clinic gates.
After 10 years of campaigning, last night 🇬🇧 MPs voted overwhelmingly in support of national #BufferZones. Anti-choice groups will now be prevented from gathering outside abortion clinics to harass clients and providers. This is a huge cross-party win for #AbortionRights🥳
NEW: Ahead of the Scottish Green Party's AGM tonight, the Party's most senior parliamentary staffer - and key ally of Ross Greer - has submitted an anti-trade union motion which will prevent TU delegates from having formal representation in Party structures. (1/3)
Abortion stigma still exists despite it being essential healthcare 1 in 3 women in the UK will have an abortion in their lifetime We need to destigmatise & decriminalise abortion in the UK b/c #AbortionIsNotACrime If you are a HCP & you agree, join us - @DrsforChoice_UK
Article about this here: theguardian.com/world/2022/oct…
Let's be proud to say it loud: ABORTION! ABORTION! ABORTION. theguardian.com/world/2022/oct…
I both can and cannot believe that @DrsforChoice_UK were told to cover the word "ABORTION" at an abortion care conference in the UK.
I cannot believe that in 2022 @RoySocMed has forbidden us to use the word #Abortion at an #AbortionCare conference @BSACP @DrsforChoice_UK @RCObsGyn @FSRH_UK
We are elated to announce that we have got a #bournemouthbufferzone! More details to come (I'm at work!!) but we want to thank @BPAS1968 @BCPCouncil and most importantly YOU for your support and activism in this campaign journey. Details: democracy.bcpcouncil.gov.uk/ieDecisionDeta…
Argh still can't believe it but proud to be a small part of great organisations like @abortion_talk that keep up the fight to challenge abortion stigma in the UK Iconic orgs incl (not exhaustive!!) @Abortion_Rights @SisterSupporter @DrsforChoice_UK @mybody_mylife @All4Choice
Important🧵👇from @DrsforChoice_UK. What occurred on Friday at @RoySocMed is what abortion stigma within medical establishments looks like. To hide the word 'abortion' is to deny information about this specialism & perpetuate stigma. RSM have said they'll investigate the incident
What happened at the RSM conference space last week is an excellent example of why Abortion Talk and other projects and organisations working to destigmatise abortions (like @DrsforChoice_UK and @mybody_mylife) are desperately needed. Abortion isn't a dirty word.
Last year, more than half of people who had abortions in the UK already have children. It's insulting to parents & paediatric specialists to assume they would be offended by seeing the word 'abortion' in an event space.
RSM staff said the censorship was necessary due to the "sensitive" nature of our exhibition. They emphasised that we were next to the Children’s Trust’s paediatric brain injury conference, implying that the attendees of this conference would be offended by our stand.
