First Steps Pregnancy Support is a community organisation that provides a central contact point for pregnant women in crisis.

Pregnancy can be a time of great joy, but for many it brings significant distress without any clear pathway through.  We are here to ensure that all pregnant women can access the vital support and resources they need to enable them to continue with their pregnancy and to become capable and confident mothers.
