The Adoption and Fostering Podcast
Kids & Family:Parenting
In this episode we speak to Professor Julie Selwyn academic, social worker and author of several key academic studies and reports including the seminal Beyond the Adoption Order.
Julie shares her experience as a professional and how that influenced her later academic research as well as the impact of what is now seen as a seminal report for the adoption community 'Beyond the Adoption Order'. We chat about the lead up to the report, it's impact and legacy as well as considering adoption 6 years on from that report and where we're at now.
Please note, after we recorded and Julie checked the stats she recalled from memory during the interview and asked that this correction was popped in:
"I was correct with 50% of 4-7yrs don't know why they're in care and it is 46% of 8-10yrs, but I think I said a third for the 11-17yrs group when it is 22%"
We really enjoyed chatting to Julie and her depth of knowledge and insight and hope you did too. If you like the podcast we'd really appreciate a review on iTunes as it helps get more people listening to us. If you're up for that then pop here and it will only take a minute.
