BIOGRAPHY
Isabel has been praying outside abortion centres and offering help to women/couples there for over twenty years, supporting many of them in continuing their pregnancy.
She is Campaign Director for 40 Days for Life in Birmingham, England and Co-director of March for Life UK.
Isabel has been arrested twice for silently praying near an abortion centre but was completely acquitted in court and received a settlement from the police after she made a claim against them for wrongful arrest and imprisonment. Isabel is now again being charged for violating the censorship zone around the abortion centre by her silent prayers and is awaiting trial in early 2027.
