LIFE

Pontypridd Life Office offers free pregnancy testing with no-delay results, as well as counselling. Our trained counsellors are there to listen, not to judge.   All counselling is strictly confidential. We offer emotional and practical support to help women continue their pregnancy - and counselling after abortion for women who have been badly damaged by the experience.

LIFE also runs a National Help line staffed by our most experienced counsellors and is available 9.00am - 9.00pm, 7 days a week. You can call if you have a quick query, or if you want to talk in depth to someone over the phone. The number is 0845 300 1716 (all calls charged at the local rate, no matter where you are in the country).

LIFE can provide practical help and support after birth.

We have 34 houses nationwide which offer accommodation for pregnant young women or mothers of small children. While in a LIFE house women have the opportunity to learn life skills, and are fully supported through their pregnancy and as long afterwards as necessary.

There are two hospices for babies with multiple disabilities, both situated in the north of England, which have taken babies from all over the UK. It is staffed by registered sick children's nurses, registered general nurses, nursery nurses and care assistants.

The hospices provides residential respite and terminal care for babies and small children up to the age of 5 with multiple special needs. The hospices reflect the belief that every child is special and that his/her family are entitled to personal and professional quality care which fully respects their dignity and privacy.
