Stop harassment at WA clinics

WA MPs: Vote yes to protect patients at abortion care clinics

Everyone deserves privacy and dignity when accessing healthcare. 

But unfortunately in Western Australia, patients still face harassment and intimidation at abortion care clinics. In fact, patients have reported being accosted and being called "murderers", and staff have been spat on, and had holy water thrown at their cars.[1]

In just a few months the WA parliament is expected to vote on a bill that would create safe access zone protection. In other states, we’ve faced fierce opposition and attempts to water down these patient protections - so we need to make sure we have the community power to persuade every undecided member of parliament to vote yes to full safe access zone protections. Will you join the campaign?

"Couldn’t believe my eyes when I drove by Marie Stopes in Midland the other day. People set up with chairs and with placards. It should not be allowed."

"No one has a right to govern Women’s bodies and Women should be supported in every way to make safe choices for themselves and their bodies. When a Woman is going through an intensely personal and deeply difficult decision and subsequent procedure, the last thing she needs is the views and abuse of religious fundamentalists shoved in her face. Not to mention the harassment of staff who care enough to endure this in order to provide an essential and in some cases, life-saving service. End this appalling abuse of vulnerable Women by religious extremists."
