Training and events

Join colleagues from across the adoption sector for a forum focused on adopter recruitment. This event will explore the findings of Adoption Propensity in England, Coram's latest research into the factors that influence people's willingness and propensity to adopt. Alongside an overview of the research, participants will have the opportunity to consider what the findings mean for their own area and how they can be translated into effective recruitment strategies. The forum is designed for adoption service leaders, managers, practitioners, recruitment professionals and others with responsibility for recruiting and supporting adopters.

Storyteller is the digital platform designed to support life story work by enabling content to be created and curated for, with, and by children in care. Join Coram and After Cloud, the teams behind the project, for the latest instalment of our quarterly webinar series. This webinar is all about truths, told in ways that can be heard... about stories that bring tears and laughter... about the psychological safety for identity to emerge. About courage, and bright futures.

This one-day forum will bring together senior leaders from children's social care, care-experienced people, researchers, technology partners, social enterprises and the voluntary sector to explore the central question: If we were designing children's social care today, knowing what AI and modern technology can now do, what would we build differently to improve outcomes for children, and what must remain fundamentally human?

2027 will be Coram PACEY’s 50th anniversary year. The theme for our conference and throughout the year is ’50 years of impact driving a future full of ambition’. Throughout the day, we will be looking back and celebrating the last fifty years of childcare and early years and the contribution of home-based childcare professionals.

CCLC provide training for social work teams, IROs, advocates, personal advisers, NGOs and other frontline practitioners. We can also tailor any of our full day training, or provide separate training to cover other areas – for example healthcare, access to education & EU rights.
