 WTAF: The Real Talk Podcast for Care-Experienced Young People!

We Talk Adoption and Fostering (WTAF) is a bold new podcast series by care-experienced young people, for care-experienced young people. It’s the space where we take control of our stories, share what really matters to us, and break down the issues that impact our lives every day. From the highs to the lows, we’re diving deep into what it's really like to grow up care-experienced, tackling everything from identity, mental health, and relationships, to navigating the system and fighting for change.

Whether you're someone who's lived it, working with young people, or just want to understand what needs to change, WTAF is the real, unfiltered conversation you need to hear. We’re done being ignored—we’re here to be heard.Copyright Scottish Adoption & Fostering
