What's on in Thurrock

National Adoption Week events

Thursday 23 October 2025, 10am

We will be out and about in Thurrock and London, to share information around adoption and answer any questions you may have about adopting.

The plans are part of National Adoption Week (20 to 26 October), an annual event which looks to raise awareness and promote adoption in the UK.

On Thursday 23 October, we will be over at Lakeside Shopping Centre with an information stand from 10am to 9pm. If you’re planning on making a shopping trip, pop over to the team to have a chat and ask any questions you may have. 

We'll also have have an information stand from 6:30am to 9:30am on Tuesday 21 October at Fenchurch Street Station, alongside colleagues from other Local Authorities. If you're commuting at the time and have some spare minutes, come along and say hello.
