Fostering and adoption

Adopting a ChildAdoption

 

Adopting a child is one of the most rewarding things anyone can do. It can also be one of the most challenging.

 

If you're thinking about adopting a child, even if you're only at the very early stages, our Adoption Team can help.

 

From deciding whether adoption is for you, to guiding you through the whole assessment process, we are here to answer any questions you may have and to make sure that you receive the support you need.

      

We have links to all South Wales adoption agencies and others nationwide. This provides a wide network for children who need adoption.

  

Please use the pages within this section to find out more about who can adopt, how our team can help you, and who to contact for further information.
