Training and events

Drawing on Coram Voice’s recent report, Disability, Disparity and Demand, this free webinar will look at what we do (and importantly what we don't know) about the experiences of these children growing up in the care system. We’ll hear from one of the authors of the report, Dr Claire Baker, as well as other experts in the field.

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.

Activity Days allow you to meet a range of children who are waiting to be adopted in a supported, safe and fun environment. Referrals are free of charge but you will need to be in at least Stage 2 of the assessment process with a positive recommendation from your social worker.

Coram Ambitious for Adoption host free information sessions about adoption. These events are a great chance to learn general information about adoption and how to adopt through Coram. There will be an opportunity to ask any questions in both the online and in person sessions.
