Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole (BCP) council has launched a consultation over plans for a buffer zone outside an abortion clinic. Residents are being encouraged to respond to the consultation on whether to implement such a zone outside the BPAS clinic in Bournemouth.
BCP council said the aim of the buffer zone would be “to protect the staff and visitors who have been affected by the behaviour of those who congregate, hold vigils and protest outside”. This includes anti-abortion protesters.
