Petition Introduce a 'Safe Haven' law for abandoned babies here in the UK

Create a baby box within public sectors to prevent any babies being “dumped” and to also protect the mothers who have given birth with the after care they may require.

More details

This creates a safe place for the newborn baby, a safe place for the parent. It provides both with the support and after care they may so desperately need. There should be a law that protects the mother from prosecution for doing something that she already feels so terrible about, but wants and needs to do this safely.
