The Adoption and Fostering Podcast

The ‘Alternative’ Preparation Course Pt5 With Adoptee and Panel Member Kat Samwell-Smith


Listen Later

In this episode we focus on the experience of going to panel. It's a nerve wracking and challenging experience for many adopters and Kat shares some of her experiences and offers insight into Panel from her perspective as a panel member and an adoptee. We discuss the process, the challenges, quality of PARs and a whole raft of aspects of what impacts on the panel's function. Kat also shares some of her experiences of being an adoptee and her perspective on adoption generally. It's a great chat and rest assured, Al is sorry for the interruption of his daughter through FaceTime!
