As a clinical psychologist, one of the first questions Chris Tennyson asks his patients is about their family medical history. It’s a question which carries a personal irony as for decades it’s a question Chris couldn’t answer himself. He's been chatting to @CarolJordanTV on the latest episode of Going the Extra Mile. itv.com/news/utv/2026-…

Adopted as a young infant, Chris Tennyson's adoptive family never received any family health history, a situation which as he found out, could have been life threatening. His goal is that he can change the rules so this never happens to any other adopted person again. Catch the latest episode of Going the Extra Mile with @CarolJordanTV on ITVX or wherever you get your podcasts. itv.com/news/utv/2026-…

So beautiful to be at the celebration of care experienced students completing @UlsterUni’s developmental trauma short course, in the middle of #FCF26. It was a privilege to be part of the delivery. The achievement of the young people is commendable!👏 @DomMcSherry1 @fosteringnet

I’m in love with this sentence: “The art of not being ready and doing it anyway will take you so far.”

I’ve said it once, but I’ll say it twice. The key to life is always having a dinner reservation or a vacation in the near future

Thanks so much to all the adoptees who have responded so far - and everyone else who has shared this. The survey is open till Thursday 30th April at 5pm, so please share if you can! #adoption #healthequity #transracialadoption

Fellow adoptees, I need your help! I'm doing a journalism project on how the NHS treats adoptees, including a survey. It's anonymous and will take 5-15 minutes to do. More info in the survey. #adoption #adopteerights #adopteehealth forms.gle/xXeiGJ1fJcrZbj…

The @CommonsEd report on historic forced adoption feels like a tentative step forward in securing justice. I reflect in my blog for @ChildFamJustice what it means for @AdoptionApology and @AdultAdopteeMov given opposition and obfuscation to date: lancaster.ac.uk/centre-for-chi…
Michael Lambert@GrandCamouflage

This morning @CommonsEd chaired by @helenhayes_ have published their report on historic forced adoption. Their main conclusion and recommendation, among others, is for an “unqualified, formal apology” with the utmost urgency. publications.parliament.uk/pa/cm5901/cmse…

The @longlostfamily special on the mother and baby home scandal has been nominated for a @RadioTimes readers award. If you felt the programme shone a light on this historic injustice within living memory your vote would be greatly appreciated. 👇🔗 radiotimes.com/tv/documentari…
