SPRING NEWSLETTER
Firgrove & the Lilies
Firgrove are welcoming the new year with new energy and enthusiasm for some different avenues for our work including expanding our client base around post-adoption! We are passionate about the service we offer and meeting as many people as we can in their need around pregnancy and baby loss...
Centre News
Our team has recently visited the Bereavement Midwives at the Princess Anne Hospital where we saw the beautiful rooms they have for those who have experienced a loss. It has been enlightening to see the service they offer and how we can support them through our on-call counselling project funded by the Focus Foundation.
We are working with the Bereavement Midwives to support the Bramshaw unit for those who experience a loss under 20 weeks gestation and with the Foetal Medicine Team to support individuals and couples more in the moment.
This year brings the delivery of Unplanned Pregnancy training in April and our Post-abortion programme, Purple Doorway, training in May. If you would like to explore accessing this training or know of a counsellor who would benefit from this, please get in touch with us so we can let you know the dates and cost for this!
