Episode description

In time for Father's Day, Jane spoke to Gary Coles, who lost his son to adoption in 1967 and who has written extensively about the experience of fathers who were separated from their sons and daughters by adoption. Gary also worked as a manager for VANISH, a Victorian service supporting all those affected by adoption and donor conception. In 2019 Gary travelled to Queensland and ran a Fathers' workshop for Jigsaw Qld. This episode discusses adult themes and listener discretion is advised.
