Dr Helen Riley (Late Discovery - Part Two)

Dr Helen Riley (Late Discovery - Part Two)

In the second episode of our late discovery series, we speak to Dr Helen Riley about her personal story and her research into late discovery adoption. Imagine discovering that you're adopted as an adult. This disclosure might come following the death of an adoptive parent, by accident, when approached by a biological family member, while applying for a passport, finding adoption papers or during a family argument. These are just some of the ways late discoverers have found out the truth. This episode discusses adult themes and listener discretion is advised.
