The Fertility Alliance is here for you at every stage of your fertility journey, whether you’re wondering about your future fertility, are already having tests or treatment or have already completed treatment. We will be offering a wide range of support services, tailored to your needs.
We offer individual one-to-one support, we run regular fertility groups for you to meet other people who have similar experiences, and a book club where we are joined by an author to discuss a memoir or novel about fertility. We give regular updates on our news blog and on social media.
Fertility Groups
We hold regular monthly online group meetings, to connect with others and share experiences, run by a trained volunteer.
We run regular online groups for men with NeXYs fertility and some in person too.
We run a group for people with secondary infertility, and one for people thinking about stopping fertility treatment with Kelly Da Silva of the Dovecot and the IVF Gap
We offer a support service for healthcare professionals who are impacted by fertility issues who are working in related areas such as midwifery, fertility clinics or maternity services. We have a private WhatsApp group and online meetings.
Upcoming dates are:
Tuesday 4 November at 7.30pm – Next Steps Group for those considering moving on from treatment.
11 November at 7.30pm – Our group for healthcare professionals working in fertility, maternity and related areas who are experiencing their own fertility issues.
