The Bridge is, at the same time, friendly, relaxed and highly professional in its approach. Over 3500 babies have been born to Bridge parents.

Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority
The Human Fertilisation and Embryology Act was passed by Parliament in 1990, and as a result the Human Fertilisation and Embrology Authority (HFEA) was set up. One of their tasks is to monitor, inspect and license IVF treatment in the UK and ensure that the law is upheld.
Many of the forms you will be asked to complete are from the HFEA, such as the consent to the use of your eggs and sperm for treatment.
