Polly Talks Adoption and Fostering: Bluebird Flock with Birth Parent Rachel

In this moving episode of Polly Talks, Polly is joined by Rachel, a birth mother who has found crucial support through the Bluebird Flock groups, and Sarah, her dedicated support worker. Together, they share how the Bluebird Project has played a transformative role in Rachel's journey—offering a vital network for birth parents who have a child in foster, adoptive, or kinship care and another living at home with them. The Bluebird Project was founded with one clear mission: to create a safe, non-judgmental space where birth parents can connect, heal, and access support. Whether you’re in Edinburgh, the Lothians, or anywhere across Scotland, Bluebird is here to help. With services ranging from virtual and telephone counselling to peer support groups, the project offers essential resources for those who may feel isolated, judged, or alone following the heart-wrenching experience of having a child removed from their care.Tune in as Polly, Rachel, and Sarah talk about the life-changing impact of the Bluebird Flock and the sense of community it provides.
