Welcome to The Firgrove Centre, Southampton

Read more About us.
We can support you through:
Pregnancy Loss or Baby Loss at Birth
Are you seeking help from the traumatic experience of losing a baby during pregnancy or at birth?
Unintended Pregnancy
If you find yourself unexpectedly pregnant, we are here to talk things through without judgement.
Post Abortion
Whether the abortion was recent or many years ago, it can impact your wellbeing as well as your relationships at home or in the workplace.
Issues Around Infertility
The never-ending spiral of trying for a baby can take its toll on our emotions and our health.
“I just wanted to write a huge thank you for helping me through the darkest, most difficult time of my life. I really can’t explain how grateful I am. Just having someone to listen and not judge, helped me process a complete mess of emotions. Without these regular sessions I really don’t think I could have made it out the other side.”
