Summary ofthe objects
charity set out in its
ofthe The provision ofadvice, counselling
and assistance to women
and their families who are suffering
any emotional stress or
governing document poverty during oras a result ofpregnancy
or following
an abortion
or miscarriage
Trustees kept in mind the Charity Commission's
guidance
on public
benefit when planning
our activities for the year. As a matter ofcourse,
reference was made to our agreed objectives to aid decision-making.
The
main activities undertaken
for the public benefit are as follows:
Cornerstone
offers care and support to women
and their families
facing an unplanned
pregnancy
or suffering
from any negative
emotional
effects following a previous
termination
choice.
We offer, time, space and non-directive
information
in a non-
judgemental
caring environment
to ensure individuals
are making
a decision without coercion, that they have the information
needed and are able to talk through
their decision
with someone
who is trained to listen, help and remain
neutraL
Cornerstone
gives each individual
time to confidentially
discuss their decision,
whilst reviewing
circumstances,
feelings and thoughts.

for anyone,
including
partners,
who
have experienced a miscamage.
One in three pregnancies

ends in termination
in the UK
amounting
to stress and concern for many women
and men who
are not offered help or support anywhere
else. One in 3 women
will have a termination
by the time she is40and many
will go on
to have further terminations.
45%ofbabies born last year in
Britain were unplanned.
There is, therefore, a lot ofangst
surrounding
early pregnancy.
We are increasingly
seeing clients
where their pregnancy
has been a trigger for domestic abuse and
know that existing abuse may get worse during
pregnancy
or after
giving birth.
It is imperative
that we continue to reach these
women and there is no other group
ln Cambridgeshire
offering the
unique set ofservices that we do.
