A Southland anti-abortion group will begin weekly protests outside Southland Hospital from next month.
The demonstrations would be “peaceful and non-confrontational” and held on public land, Southlanders For Life spokesman and Winton Catholic parish priest Fr Vaughan Leslie said.
The Southern District Health Board (SDHB) began a termination service at the hospital about two months ago and has said it expects about 280 abortions to be done annually.
The demonstrations, which would last for about an hour each week, would be a “silent witness”, Fr Leslie said.
