Welcome



bpas (British Pregnancy Advisory Service) is Britain's largest single abortion provider, caring for over 55,000 women each year. We also provide pregnancy testing, contraception, sterilisation and vasectomy in over 50 consultation centres and clinics located throughout the UK.

bpas supports reproductive choice and health by advocating and providing high quality, affordable services to help women and men prevent unwanted pregnancies with contraception or end them by abortion. We can also help women who have decided to terminate a pregnancy following a diagnosis of fetal anomaly.

bpas offers a range of other reproductive health services, including an online service offering STI testing, emergency contraception, and treatment and advice for erectile dysfunction. Our service is respected for its quality of care, delivered by highly-trained staff who are sensitive and non-judgemental.

bpas is committed to education, research and the development of good practice. We play a significant role in providing accurate, up-to-date information and informed comment on sexual health to Parliamentarians, policy makers, journalists, opinion-formers and researchers.
