The Donegal branch of the Abortion Rights Campaign are set to travel to Dublin this Saturday for the upcoming March For Choice.
The march is part of a national campaign from the pro-choice movement for legal abortion in Ireland.
The ARC have arranged a bus to travel up to the capital at 9am on Saturday morning from Charley’s Cafe in Letterkenny and it will cost €10 for a return ticket. They will be making placards on the journey down to Dublin.
They are hoping to arrive in Dublin for 1pm, as the march begins at 1:30pm at Parnell Square.
They will then be leaving Dublin at 6pm to be back in Letterkenny for 10pm.
If you are interested in getting a lift with them you can book your seat by emailing abortionrightsdonegal@gmail.com with the subject title “March for Choice Bus Booking” along with the following information;
(1) The names of all passengers you are booking for
(2) Your mobile number and emergency contact
(3) Details of how they can arrange payment
The ARC comments; “The U.K Department of Health statistics show that 67 women who attended U.K clinics listed Donegal as their address. These figures do not take into account the women who used a UK address or those who ordered and took abortion pills at home.”
“Every meeting Abortion Rights Campaign Donegal has held has been extremely well attended, with many Donegal men also coming along to give their support to the campaign.”
Over 10,000 people are set to attend the fifth annual March for Choice.
