Heidi’s July hearing due

The next step in the campaign to change the law that allows babies with Down’s syndrome to be aborted up to birth will take place in July.

The case, brought by well-known campaigner Heidi Crowter and others, will be heard at the Court of Appeal on 13 July.

Asking for funds to support the appeal, Heidi wrote: ‘This really is a groundbreaking case that will end the stigma created by a law that clearly discriminates against people with Down’s syndrome and other disabilities. Please please support us for this final stretch.’
