For local authority professionals who are involved in the placement of children in the UK with kinship carers overseas on a Hague Convention Adoption Order.

This session aims to provide adoption services and practitioners an overview of Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD). It aims to help fostering and adoption services by providing strategies and resources to assist agencies who are working with children or young people with a FASD diagnosis. Our presenters are Sandy and Martin Butcher, co-founders and co-chairs of the Hertfordshire FASD Support Network. Our Chair is Alice Sewell, trainer at NationalFASD.

Activity Days allow you to meet a range of children who are waiting to be adopted in a supported, safe and fun environment. Referrals are free of charge but you will need to be in at least Stage 2 of the assessment process with a positive recommendation from your social worker.

Coram Ambitious for Adoption host free information sessions about adoption. These events are a great chance to learn general information about adoption and how to adopt through Coram. There will be an opportunity to ask any questions in both the online and in person sessions.
