Story

I had an ectopic pregnancy 9 years ago. I still struggle emotionally every day because of it. If I can help just one person like me then that’s what I want to do. 

Ectopic pregnancy is a common, occasionally life-threatening condition that affects around 1 in 80 pregnancies. Put very simply, it means an out-of-place pregnancy.We are the only charity that focuses on ectopic pregnancy to provide such extensive general information and peer support for anyone that has experienced the conditionThere is a crucial need for The EPT. When someone has a suspected ectopic pregnancy or is diagnosed with the condition, they and their partners have many questions and worries. We are here to provide those affected with somewhere to go, providing information and support. People gain comfort from being among others who had had a similar experience and many healthcare professionals signpost families to our services so that we can be there in the days, weeks, and even months ahead.For more information about the EPT80in1 Challenge please take a look at our website:https://ectopic.org.uk/ept80in1-challenge
