About Us
THE INITIATIVE
On 9 March 1997, the late Cardinal Thomas Joseph Winning launched a major practical initiative to help women facing a crisis pregnancy. Over the years we have assisted countless women and their families, practically, financially, emotionally and spiritually.
CRISIS PREGNANCY?
When faced with a crisis pregnancy, it is easy to feel overwhelmed. A feeling of panic can often be a first reaction. How will I cope? I have no one to turn to support. In this situation, many women quickly decide to opt for abortion.
We know this from our experience of speaking with women. Many did not take time to examine the options. Many regret not taking that time.
There is another way…you do have a choice.
You can choose to have your baby and we will help you.
Any woman, from any ethnic origin, any religion or none, faced with a crisis pregnancy is welcome to contact the Pro-Life Initiative for help.

Today, I sought help for young girl I am working with. I picked up the phone and called the Cardinal Winning ProLife Initiative, having been running around, desperately trying to gather things together and help this young lady in need. I spoke with Sister Roseanne and she filled my heart with joy as her help was outpouring and so, so appropriate and caring for this young girl who needed support.
I knew as soon as I spoke with Sister Roseanne that everything would be a lot better for my student who has been through such trauma. It was such a relief!
God bless this wonderful work that you do – I felt truly humbled today by the generosity of spirit which I encountered. I hope and pray that many more girls are blessed by your support!!
I was 15yrs old when I fell pregnant with my oldest son. Sister Roseanne was amazing and they helped my family and myself through a very difficult time. My son is now 11yrs old and I know that without prolifes help things could have been so different for us both.
Thank you with all my heart and I know that many more girls will be helped by you all
Thank you Pope John Paul II. Praise Jesus and Mary!!!

Thank you for your enerosity of time and ministry and may you receive divine blssing
I am overwhelmed and so appreciative of the help I have received from the Cardinal Winning project, without the love, help and support from Roseanne and Andrea myself and my son would not be in the position we are now.
When I was worried and scared and didn’t know what to do they helped me and made me feel safe and secure and assured me everything would be ok. My son is 2 now and he could not be any more loved, he is a bright and fun young boy and is a complete joy to have. I am so glad I made the decision to keep him and was given the help and support to do so.
God Bless.x
Have good condition second hand kids clothes,toys and soft toys also got good condition mamas and papas pram and second hand women clothes n shoes just clearing out house ie de cluttering and looking for good place to give which would be of most benefit to the less fortunate. Can u tell me bit more about your work. Look forward to your reply thanks
We accept any good working order baby equipment and childrens clothes mainly. The other items we are not so in need of, but if you can’t find anywhere else to give them we do accept them.
We are a charity which is part of the Archdiocese of Glasgow and we help women, families and children who need practical help. Some of these women are considering an abortion and others are pregnant with existing children who are in need of pracitcal help which makes life alittle easier for them ane their families. Due to the current finacial situation we almost always have a shortage of baby equipment. We help alot of women through projects who contact us regularly and they request various items which we try and give them. However if we don’t have one or more of these items then they go on a long waiting list until we can provide the items. If you would like to donate the items you specified then please contact us and arrange a day that is mutually suitable as sometimes we have issues with storage in the Initiative hall.
Hi Sr Roseanna,
We met at the recent launch of APS in Edinburgh. I wanted to donate money to the Cardinal Winning Pro-Life Initiative and Gift Aid it. You said that details were on the website but I have still failed to track them down. Are you able to post a link to a clear Gift Aid declaration and details of who to make cheques out to?
Many thanks indeed.
Thanks for getting in touch about donating. The way to donate and gift aid is to go the Sisters of the Gospel of Life blog gospeloflifesisters.wordpress.com where we have set up a link and that will go to the Cardinal Winning Prolife Initiative because Srs Roseann and Andrea run the Initiative so it all goes into the same pot! If you can make cheques out to The Cardinal Winning Pro-Life Initiative please.
Hi there! I could have sworn I’ve been to this website before but after reading through some of the post I realized it’s new to me.
Anyways, I’m definitely glad I found it and I’ll be bookmarking and checking back frequently!
I have a Moses Basket with stand-good order and lots of girls baby clothes, VGC. Would you like them?
Yes please we would love to have them. Please give us a ring or just bring it along when you have a chance. Thanks very much.

Please pray for me, Sisters. I know abortion is a grave and mortal sin. But I am so sorely tempted to have one. Please pray with me, that God may keep me from mortal sin. Thank you
Thanks for getting in touch with us. Prayers for you and your baby are assured. If you want to phone and talk to one of the Sisters for help and advice I am sure that together we can find a way to support you and your baby what ever your circumstances are. Please don’t make a decision you will regret.

I would like to born it anyway. Is there any group/blog in UK or someone who went through that I could speak with? thanks anna
Right here is the right website for everyone who hopes to find
out about this topic. You understand so much its
almost tough to argue with you (not that I personally
