This year's Members’ Week took place between 23 – 27 September. The focus of the week was “Listening to the child...” and each day we explored a different theme relating to the diverse experiences and challenges faced by children and young people in adoption, foster care and kinship care. 

Across the week we delivered an exciting mix of live events, blogs, podcast episodes, journal articles, pre-recorded bitesize workshops and more. The podcast episodes, recorded interviews and bite-size workshops are available to members only, with plans to release them to the wider public at a later date, ensuring that our members have first access to information, resources and ideas.
