While we have our Support Meetings in South Woodham Ferrers on the first Thursday of every month we welcome bereaved parents from across all of Essex. We tend to see parents who have been to Broomfield, Basildon, Southend and Queens Hospitals and we welcome all bereaved parents and family members who are looking for support, regardless of your baby’s gestation period. We also have a group that meets regularly in the Clacton on Sea area.
