 Check out Marie Stopes on google. The price and everything is there. But it is a private thingy so you'll have to pay for it. I can tell you now, its not cheap. If you're underage, you can get an abortion free on the NHS and it'll be all confidential with no one having to know. But most likely, it'll be the one with the vacuum which works for anything under 12 weeks.

 The abortion pill is a form of abortion available to women who are under 9 weeks pregnant. The woman will be given a pill to swallow and 36 to 48 hours later a tablet will be placed in her vagina. These two drugs will end most early pregnancies within the following four hours. A minimum of 2 visits to a hospital or clinic are involved.
This method is not always available on the NHS so you will need to check with the referring doctor. It is available privately.
I couldnt find anything on cost so your best bet is to talk it over with a GP. Im not sure on age restrictions or if parents consent needs to be given. A GP or local family planning clinic will be able to give you more information.
Take care x
