Join our friendly, informal drop-in group where you can connect with other Southend parents who truly understand the ups and downs of this stage of life.

Whether you’d like to share your experiences, ask questions, or simply enjoy a cuppa while your baby plays nearby, you’ll find a warm welcome here. Together, we’ll talk openly about the joys and challenges of pregnancy, birth, and early parenthood.

Come as you are, stay as long as you like, and know that you’ll be met with kindness, understanding, and encouragement. (Older children are also welcome to come along with you).

Where: Salvation Army, Clarence Road (side entrance), Southend, SS1 1BD
