Surrogacy conference in Melbourne

Tuesday, May 23, 2017

The annual surrogacy conference is on again- this time on Saturday 3 and Sunday 4 June, in Melbourne, run by Families Through Surrogacy.

I will be going, as I have done every year except in 2015 (when I was speaking at the International Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers international surrogacy symposium in London).

The event will be as interesting as ever, with both domestic and international speakers. Some of the leading surrogacy figures internationally will be there, including lawyer Andy Vorzimer, fertility Dr Bruce Shapiro and psychologist Dr Kim Bergman.
