Concerned about P2P being online now

My wife and I are expecting our first child and I'm concerned about the fact that Pathway to Parenting (P2P) antenatal classes are now going to be fully online. We've been told the only option is to pay to go to something run by NCT which is £150. We're first time parents and it's all a bit daunting for us. All the other options are paid for so there's nothing equivalent. The midwives are brilliant but they're limited to about 15/20 minutes when they visit. We've done two of the online sessions now and one was about brain development which isn't relevant for us yet and the other has been about what you to prepare. But the what to prepare video just included two couples saying what you didn't need, not useful things you would need. There's been no information on what happens and when it happens to help us prepare. We're in our third trimester so I don't want to bother our midwife with things at this stage but we're trying to plan ahead and get prepared. I'm just worried about my wife. I'm worried about her missing out on the social aspect of P2P e.g. meeting other mums in the same situation and forming a support network. From what I've heard it's about having someone to text at 2am when you're stressed or when I come home from work and I want to rest but she's been home all day without adult conversation.
