This time next week our dedicated team member, Heather, will be setting up for our Mother's Morning Tea. If you're a mother who lost a child to adoption we'd love you to join us for a cuppa, some biscuits and a huge dose of kindness. The Mother's Morning Tea runs from 10am to 12 noon on Wednesday 15 January at 505 Bowen Terrace New Farm. If you can't make it next week, here are the dates for our Mother's Morning Tea throughout 2025: Wednesday 19 March 2025 Wednesday 21 May 2025 Wednesday 16 July 2025 Wednesday 17 September 2025 Wednesday 19 November 2025 #support #cuppa #mother #adoption #jigsawqld #meeting #together #connectionmatters #kindness #compassion

About us
Jigsaw was established in Australia and New Zealand in 1976 and was incorporated in Queensland in 1988. We have assisted over 30,000 people in their search for their biological heritage … and many more who were not actively engaged in the process of searching or seeking reunion. In fact, one growing element of our membership in more recent years has been those who are well down the path of reunion who consciously seek to understand and know themselves better. Jigsaw Queensland services include: * Emotional support by phone or email * Monthly Support Group meetings * Information to assist with your search * Regular Newsletters * Access to Jigsaw Library * Referral to professionals and other agencies * Forced Adoption Support Service Regardless of where or when the adoption took place, Jigsaw Queensland offers confidential support.

Our team was honoured to support people impacted by adoption between Christmas and the New Year. Thank you to the beautiful souls who touched base, reached out and connected with us. Emotional support can help to navigate the pain, grief and loss associated with adoption. Every day we empower people to understand, and heal from, the impact of adoption. 💜 #christmas #family #lovedones #connection #support #empower #emotions #adoption #understand #healing #jigsawqld
