Yes. It was Thomas Cardinal Winning, former Cardinal ARchbishop of Glasgow.

the first English Bishop to do this was the Late Bishop Eric Graser of Shrewsbury who made the pledge in 1970. He also set up about 5 centres where women could go for assistance and he paid for staffing the centres.

He also invited the Catholic Needlework Guild in his Diocese to provide for the needs of women in the form of layettes etc.

God Bless all who visit this forum,
