Susan Vickers Foundation Hosts Heart-warming Coffee & Chat Morning for Foster and Adoptive Families

WOLVERHAMPTON, UK 

The Susan Vickers Foundation is thrilled to announce its upcoming Coffee & Chat morning, a much-anticipated event following the overwhelming success of its previous gatherings. 

This heart-warming community initiative is set to take place on Saturday, 27th July 2024, from 10 AM to 12 PM at The Change Makers Hub in Wolverhampton.Inspired by Susan Vickers' personal experience as an adoptee and recognising a vital need in the community, these events aim to bring together foster and adoptive families in a warm, supportive environment where they can connect, share experiences, and recharge.

Susan Vickers, the renowned broadcaster, author, and community champion, explains, "As someone who has navigated the adoption journey myself, I understand the unique challenges and joys these families face. 

Our Coffee & Chat mornings have become a beacon of support for the fostering and adoption community, filling a crucial gap by providing a judgment-free zone for open discussions and mutual support.

Highlights of the event include:

• Complimentary refreshments
• A judgment-free zone for open or private discussions
• Soft play area and crafts for children
• On-site counsellors and therapists for additional support

The Susan Vickers Foundation, known for its commitment to empowering care-experienced individuals, has designed this event to offer holistic support to both seasoned foster parents and those new to adoption. The foundation's work has gained recognition for its positive impact, with Susan's books "Love Susan" and "Traced" recently inducted into the NHS reference library."

The overwhelming positive response to our previous Coffee & Chat mornings has shown us just how much these events are needed," adds Susan. "We're excited to continue providing a space where families can forge lifelong friendships and gain valuable insights from others who truly understand their journey.

This Coffee & Chat morning is part of the foundation's broader initiative to support and celebrate the fostering and adoption community. It follows the successful launch of the Susan Vickers Foundation, which aims to help care-experienced individuals through various empowerment programs. The event is free to attend, and no booking is required. Foster and adoptive families are encouraged to join this supportive community gathering for a morning of genuine connection and shared experiences and support.
