Training and events

A not-to-be-missed talk about one man's extraordinary vision to create a safe haven for children in the middle of Bloomsbury over 300 years ago.

This event is now sold out, however if you wish to fundraise for Coram on your ballot place please get in touch at challengeyourself@coram.org.uk

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.

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.

Take on the 55 mile ride from London to Brighton and raise money for Coram!
