Virtual Conference - London 2025 Revisited

Hear from a stellar range of speakers at our 2025 virtual conference!

Our 2025 conference in April had some amazing speakers and now we are offering you the opportunity to enjoy some of the highlights from the comfort of your own home at this, our fifth virtual conference.

Our fantastic programme includes:

Conference programme

• Leo, a donor conceived young adult, and his identifiable donor Paul about meeting and their developing relationship
• Sophie, Matt, Ollie & Duncan: Four donor conceived adults sharing their experiences and answering questions
• Professor Vasanti Jadva presenting Perspectives of parents, donors and donor conceived adolescents and adults
• Optional: small discussion groups to allow you to connect and chat with other DC families or prospective parents

The event will be hosted by Nina, our Director. It will include a mix of live and recorded presentations, plus our wonderful panelists will be coming back to join live Q&A sessions to answer any questions you may have.

How much does it cost?
The online conference costs only £35 for members. If you’re not a member, we have a special ticket for you which includes 6 months' of DCN membership and this ticket costs £70.

When and where is the conference?
The conference is on Saturday 21st June and is being held in the afternoon from 2pm to 5.30pm to make it more accessible to those outside the UK and those who have activities on a Saturday morning. It’ll take place online via Zoom but we know that life gets busy, especially in the summer months, so we’re also offering a one-month ‘watch again’ link if you can’t join us on the day. Please note that, to ensure the privacy of attendees, we’ll only be providing recordings of the main speaker sessions and not of any group discussions.

Who is it for?
It’s open to all and is appropriate whether you’re at the early stages of considering donor conception or have children already. It will also be useful for professionals working in a field connected to donor conception who would like to better understand this way of building a family.
