Petals has been working in partnership with Princess Alexandra Hospital in Harlow since 2018 to deliver our specialist counselling support to bereaved parents. Your route to requesting Petals counselling will depend upon where you live:

If you are an Essex resident and you received your care at the Princess Alexandra Hospital, please see below the criteria for which you can request counselling and the link to the form you will need to complete.

The terms of our partnership with the Princess Alexandra Hospital state that we are able to provide funded counselling sessions to parents who are Essex residents and who have experienced any of the below within the last year:

• Early Miscarriage
• Recurrent Miscarriage
• Second Trimester Loss
• Termination for Medical Reasons (TFMR)
• Stillbirth
• Pregnancy After Loss 

Your referral must come from a healthcare professional involved in your care. If you fit the above criteria, please ask the professional referring you to complete this referral form. 

If your loss does not come under any of the above, please still complete our request for counselling form. Our counselling coordinator will always respond to you and signpost you to other services that may be able to offer you support.
