I’ m director of Choices Haringey, an association to help young pregnant women. I believe that many decisions are made without thinking deeply about them, so we try to provide a place for advice and information when somebody full of doubts comes in. Our volunteers give the girls a place where they can feel cared, where they can be calm and take their time to choose what is best for them.

We also would like to get involved in educational programs and schools, in order to show the girls what the options are. Everybody needs to be aware of the consequences to our actions.

Haringey is a fantastic area. I love the fact that you walk down the road and you can hear different languages from all over the world.
