Adult Adoptee Community Event: A Portrait of My Parents Film Screening & Discussion

Please join us for an in-person screening of 'A Portrait of My Parents', a poignant self-filmed documentary that follows photographer and adult adoptee Philip Sinden as he seeks to uncover the missing chapters of his life. We are pleased to be joined by Philip Sinden himself to discuss the film's themes and resonances.

Join us for Playful Spaces, a one-day learning event for educators, theatre-makers and creative practitioners who want to reimagine how young people learn. Hosted by Coram Shakespeare Schools Foundation, this innovative day of workshops, masterclasses and conversations will give you practical tools to energise your teaching and transform your learning environment.

Coram and the Thomas Coram Research Unit (based at University College London) hold an annual lecture to consider current themes in research relevant to children and families. This year’s lecture will focus on children and young people migrating on their own to the UK, the persistent disconnects between the realities of young people's lives and current policy and practice responses, and the value of more fully engaging the voices and experiences of young people in research, policy debate and beyond.

The Children's Services Innovation Forum returns for 2025! Join us to explore bold, practical approaches to improving outcomes for children.

On Wednesday 15 January 2025, voluntary adoption agencies across the UK will be opening their doors simultaneously to mark Big Adoption Day. We are running two events - a collaboration with the National Theatre and an extended adoption information meeting.

Please join us at our forthcoming concert celebrating Handel’s philanthropy to the Foundling Hospital.
