More than 100 young people aged 18-35 attended the first ever Youth Summit at March for Life UK 2026, where speakers emphasized the importance of vocal and unashamed advocacy for unborn lives. The March for Life event in London saw 10,000 participants peacefully demonstrating for life despite aggressive counter-protesters and poor policing, with young attendees expressing deep conviction and knowledge about the pro-life cause.
The homily at the March for Life UK 2026 emphasized the value and responsibility of parenthood as a reflection of God's love, citing Pope Francis's words that each child has a place in God's heart from all eternity and that conception fulfills the Creator's eternal dream. It also highlighted the example of Saint Monica's perseverance in prayer for her son Augustine as an encouragement to continue advocating for life despite societal challenges and opposition.
On Saturday 5th September 2026, over 10,000 people gathered in London for the March for Life UK event, which included a family summit, religious services, and a march through Westminster to Parliament Square. The event featured speakers sharing personal testimonies, discussions on fatherhood and motherhood, and concluded with prayers led by Christian leaders and 15 Roman Catholic bishops, emphasizing the pro-life message and opposition to abortion and assisted suicide in the UK.
The Terminally Ill Adults Bill failed. Peers scrutinised it, exposed its dangers, and it ran out of time before the session ended. Now it is back.

And by […] The post Parliament is being asked to legalise assisted suicide. Again… appeared first on March for Life UK .

The frustration of feeling useless is a real thing, I imagine everyone has felt it at one time or another and in all situations.

Recently I read an article in WalesOnline that I think clearly lays out the position of our Government, mainstream media and private abortion providers when it comes to this issue.
