This week is National Adoption Week for England, Wales and N. Ireland which as @adoption.uk says, aims to promote a better understanding of the different groups of people affected by adoption.

By sharing real stories and experiences from adopters, adoptees, birth parents and social workers the week hopes to share the joy and challenges of adoption and promote awareness and lobby for positive policy change related to adoption and support in the UK.

If you are interested to learn more there are a number of free events throughout the week why not check out www.adoptionuk.org or Google National Adoption Week for many more resources.

Are you an MRKHer with your own adoption story? Our Path to Parenthood page has been built for those interested in exploring different options to have a child. It includes a range of resources as well as some amazing personal experiences and we always love to add more content. If you want to share your story, anonymously or otherwise, or suggest some resources which have helped you we would love to hear from you!
