Conversations - Foster Carer Amelie

from The Adoption and Fostering Podcast · host Al Coates & Scott Casson-Rennie

Hello and welcome to conversations from the A&F podcast.  In this episode I speak to former foster carer and author Amelie. She shares her family story of a serious allegation made against them that led to her own children being removed from her care. It’s a stark account  and Amelie’s book, Broken, recounts that experience. Amelie is passionate to see change and help build a system that manages allegations better.   You can read Amelie's book here and follow her on instagram here.  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
