Workshop
Workshop: Telling & Talking (IN PERSON; solo mum and two-mum families)
16 Nov 09:30-16:30
Book nowThis workshop is for parents of donor-conceived children aged 0-7 years (Unfortunately, we are unable to have babies or children present during these workshops.)
They are equally appropriate whether you had treatment in the UK or abroad, with a known, identifiable or anonymous donor or if your treatment involved surrogacy. You may be wondering how to start talking to your child about their donor-conceived origins, or you may have already begun this process and would like to explore what may come up in the future.
As a single or lesbian woman, we recognise that your experiences are different from the time your pregnancy becomes public knowledge, and that attending our workshop even before your baby is born might be helpful for you. All of our single women and lesbian couples’ workshops have a small number of places for pregnant women.
The workshop will take place at a hotel in Central London (Angel). You will be send details a month before the workshop. Lunch & refreshments are included in the cost of the workshop. Please contact Jo at events@dcnetwork.org if you wish to discuss this further.
Please note this is a 1 day workshop (Saturday)
