Happy Care Week
When Scotland promised to get it right for every child, did that include the children whose care journey ended in adoption?
10 years later, there are still no improvements in data, and statistic’s for those placed in adoption.

Parenting is always challenging, but for adopted people becoming a mum or dad can be extra demanding, as well as extra special, says UEA's Prof Beth Neil 👩👦

In 2004 #Scotland took the first step and acknowledged child abuse in residential homes.
Since, consolations, further apologies, more inquiries,
For those #adopted have their voices ever truly been addressed?
@JohnSwinney
Why can’t you hear me?

For those adopted, this marked the beginning of what we hoped would be recognition
