It was fantastic to be at The Fertility Show last weekend to speak about our work and adoption as a path to parenthood!

We hope you were able to catch Grace, PACT’s Adopter Diversity Engagement Officer, and Bridget, Senior Social Worker, speaking at the ‘Adoption Explained’ panel or speak to us at our stand during the weekend.

We’re celebrating our wonderful supporter of the month for May, Amelia, who joined us in April 2025 as a Custody and Court Volunteer!

Amelia was a second-year law student at the University of Reading when she first enquired about a role with PACT and it was clear from the outset that her sensitivity and empathy helped her quickly build trusting relationships with women experiencing very difficult circumstances.

Maisie, from the Alana House team, said, “Amelia has been an incredible support to Alana House and the women we work with. From her first day, she has been proactive, confident, helpful, and most importantly, passionate about supporting women. Even after her placement ended, Amelia continued to support Alana House while balancing university and travelling home, something we really appreciate. Her dedication has been invaluable, and we are very sorry to see her go. Thank you so much, Amelia!”

“We need to stop fishing people out of the river and find out why they are falling in in the first place”

An incredible evening last night at our screening of Holloway. A room full of people who were not only passionate but determined to make lives better for women who come into contact with the criminal justice system and ideally preventing them from getting involved in it at all.

Huge thanks to our brilliant panel: Natausha Van Vliet, Kathryn Warner, Catherine Parfitt, Mairead O’Hanlon and to the University of Reading.
