Martin Report 2 Jan 2008 12:52

My name is martin richard winter my brother robin and I were abandoned as children, i was a toddler and robin was around 6 weeks old.

he was born at mayday hospital croydon on 05/10/1964 and was adopted in 1968 by a police woman, it's possible that its the one who found us. I was placed into care.

his mother is Shirley Anne Langridge (d.o.b 20/02/1936)
Father is Richard Henry Winter (d.o.b 06/06/1931)

their address at the time of his birth would have been
19 Comport Green
New Addington
Croydon
CR0 0BY

trying to find him, but i know that his name has probably changed since the adoption.

i would be gratefull for any help or information as i have hit a brick wall and don't know where to go from here.

Hi Martin
You could try going to social services adoption team. This can be done in your local area.
They can trace adoptees & make contact on your behalf.They won't give you Robins name, but if he agrees to contact (if & when they locate him) they will arrange for it to happen.
hope this helps
