Hello friends

 

I would like to update all of you about Heidi’s court case – I wrote about it in the last People 1st Newsletter.  People First (Self Advocacy) Newsletter - May 2022 (mailchi.mp)

 

The court hearing is taking place on 13th July – We understand that Heidi has asked the court judges to speak up about  disabled and non-disabled unborn babies equal right to life for a second time.   Heidi got the chance to speak to the court judges on 8th March. 

 

We would love all of you to support Heidi.    It be great if you can support.   You can come to the court and support  Heidi.   If you cannot come to the court, you can send your messages of support.  We will make sure all messages of support will be seen and heard by Heidi at the High court.  

 

Please follow the Reclaiming Our Futures Alliance web-link  on how you can support Heidi.
