In case you live in a place where abortion is safe and legal, this is why this matters:

Abortion is legal in most EU countries, but some states such as Malta and Poland have almost complete bans and in Italy, where abortion has been legal since 1978, access to safe termination varies from one region to another.

That means that women often travel within their own country or to another EU member state to secure safe abortions.

A trip like this obviously isn't cheap and can be a real burden on the young women (or even girls, in some cases) in need of medical assistance.
