The event will feature talks by Foster Carers, adoptive parents and those on their surrogacy journey, with short presentations from our experts. There will be an opportunity afterwards to network and ask lots of questions!

This could be on a short- or long-term basis and carers receive training, support and competitive pay to help every child achieve their potential.
Adoption South East (adoptionsoutheast.org.uk) is a partnership of councils from East Sussex, West Sussex, Brighton & Hove, and Surrey working to make the adoption process quicker and simpler. We have a wealth of expertise in bringing together children with safe, secure, loving and permanent adoptive families.
My Surrogacy Journey (mysurrogacyjourney.com) is a not-for-profit surrogacy organisation, founded by Michael and Wes, who have two children through surrogacy. Its experienced team of fertility and surrogacy experts provide surrogates and intended parents with emotional, clinical and practical support.
