In collaboration with Engender / Lets Change The Act


First we had Postcards for Palestine, next we have Postcards for Abortion Rights!

For too long women in Scotland have had to settle for a system of abortion law that doesn’t put their needs, health and rights first. We deserve a modern abortion framework that is in sync with the realities of modern healthcare, upholds human rights for all those that need abortion and prevents harmful police investigations and prosecutions.

We are hosting a second creative/ collage session around abortion rights!

Come write a postcard or craft your own unique cards:

1) to send to Parliamentary candidates and Scottish political parties, in support of decriminalising abortion in Scotland.

2) to send to abortion care providers in Scotland to thank them for showing up for patients when we need them most and if you want. share your experiences of abortion.

You can simply write a letter in company, collage a card with some information from the Let's Change The Act campaign, craft a piece of art inspired by thoughts of bodily autonomy, and feminist activism - it's really up to you.

No artistic skill or knowledge needed, just a willingness to add your voice or your story to efforts to change the act - we'll help with the rest!

£3 vouchers are redeemable against any book in the bookshop.
