The Adoption and Fostering Podcast
Kids & Family:Parenting
Hello and welcome to this special edition of the podcast from the A&F network.
On the 20th Sept we were invited the National Adoption Strategy Team's conference on openness in adoption in London. Unfortunately Scott couldn’t come so I attended on my own. It was planned initially to be just for adoption practitioners and exclusively in person. However, there was huge demand and consequently it was opened up to an online audience of practitioners, adoptees, adopters and birth families.
I was part of the round table event but was much enough to chat to a few of the contributors as well as the co Chairs Sarah Johal and Mike Hancock and squeeze an interview out of some of them. The audio is ok but you do get to hear some background noise, a sound check and kitchen sounds.
I hope it gives a flavour of the day and the topics discovered.
In order the contributors were, Mike, Tiegan, Sammy, Sarah and Clarissa all bringing their lived and professional experience to the debate.
As always if you’ve experience of adoption, fostering or special guardianship from any perspective personal or professional and would like share that on the podcast please get in touch through the Facebook page, twitter or email us at AandFpodcast@gmail.com
