Thinking about Siblings<\/strong><\/p>\n

The fourth in a series of four informal sessions where we open up the thorny subject of Contact with birth families for adopted children and young people. Feel free to come to all or just those you fancy.<\/p>\n

This session will be facilitated by Eve Payne, the Sharing Stories Life Story Worker, and she will be joined by an adopter who will share their experiences of managing contact with siblings. The session will be relatively informal with the chance to participate in the discussion, share and ask questions of those present and explore your own circumstances with supportive peers and professionals. Come with questions and dilemmas that we can help you explore.<\/p>\n

Booking<\/strong><\/p>\n

The session will be held online via Zoom. Please contact us at activities@ccsadoption.org<\/a><\/u>\u00a0<\/strong>for joining details.<\/p>\n
