View show details

In this episode of Polly Talks, Polly is joined by Mandy, who worked within the Scottish Adoption and Fostering team as part of the Bluebird Project—an initiative supporting families with children in adoption, permanent fostering, or kinship care. Mandy reflects on her role as a Support Worker and the meaningful ways she walked alongside families throughout their journeys.

She also speaks candidly about her own powerful experience as a birth parent who lost permanent care of a child, and how that deeply personal journey helped to shape the empathy and understanding she brought to her work.

This conversation is a moving and honest exploration of the complex, lifelong paths that many birth parents navigate. We are extremely grateful to Mandy for sharing her story, and we hope it brings insight, comfort, and connection to those who listen.
