Adoption offers children an opportunity to live happy, healthy, fulfilling lives with their new families. It is a lifelong commitment and offers the chance for you, as an adoptive parent, to begin or complete a family of your own.

Find out what happens at the adoption assessment and how the approval process works.

Early permanence is a means of placing a child with prospective adopters who are also approved as foster carers, whilst assessments of the birth family and the court process are ongoing.

When we look for a family to match with a child or children, we consider the child's needs which allows us to find an adoptive family with the right skills and abilities to meet those needs.
