This conversation is a great opportunity for you to talk to a professional family therapist who has extensive experience working with donor conception families. This discussion allows you to ask questions about the groups, talk about any concerns you have, give Sharon more detailed information and back ground about your child so she can really get to know them. We know from feedback that these conversations are often enormously valuable to parents. They are also essential for us to ensure Sharon and her team is aware of anything going on in the family, or for the child before meeting them all on the day. The groups are mixed and diverse and planning and preparation is key to making sure the day goes well.

Sharon will email you with a zoom link before your scheduled time, so please ensure that you give a phone number and email address that you are easily contactable on and that you are ready for your slot time. You will also need to check you can access Zoom on your device.
