Adoption and Fostering

Are you looking to adopt or foster a child, or have your child adopted?

Adopting a child - FAQ's

Frequently asked questions about adopting a child.

Adoption and fostering a child

Children of all ages and needs are waiting to be adopted. Adoptive parents are particularly needed for groups of brothers and sisters, older children and those with special or complex needs.

Fostering a child

Fostering is looking after a child or young person in your home when they're unable to live with their own families. Children may need temporary care because their parents are ill, have family problems or the child may be abused or neglected.
