Adoption Disruption - Solicitor Nigel Priestly
from The Adoption and Fostering Podcast · host Al Coates & Scott Casson-Rennie
Hello and welcome to the A&F podcast. Over the coming episodes we’re focusing our gaze on the issue of adoption disruption. It’s a hugely sensitive subject matter and we’ve talked to a range of people and professionals impacted by it, we haven’t spoken to children or adult adoptees. That’s more a reflection on our network not a policy decision. Here I speak to solicitor Nigel Priestley from Ridley and Hall, he is an adoptive parent and has focused his work on supporting adoptive parents navigate what can be a very challenging process when children can no longer live at home. It is to hard listen to the challenges families face and Nigel offers insight as to the impact on them and the difficulties that they face. As always if you’ve experience of adoption, fostering or special guardianship from any perspective personal or professional and would like share that on the podcast please get in touch through the Facebook page, BlueSky or email us at [email protected] Listen/subscribe on iTunes here Spotify here
