About us
Your family. Their future. Adoption Focus is an independent charity and one of the largest adoption agencies in the UK rated ‘Outstanding’ by Ofsted at every inspection. Over 15 years we have placed more than 700 children with just over 500 families. We truly believe that every child has the right to a loving and stable family. Whatever your background or situation, we’re here to help you to adopt, and we’re actively recruiting. If you live in or around Central England and you’re considering adoption, our friendly, expert team would love to meet you and help you to become an adoptive family. Adopt with us We recruit, prepare and assess prospective adopters. As soon as they are approved, we work with local authorities from across the country to place children with them. The children who need new families are as varied as the adopters who want to care for them. Adoption Focus specialises in finding families for children considered as priority children these are: children aged four and over; children in sibling groups; children from black, Asian and minority ethnic groups; and children with disabilities. We’re experienced specialists who’ll walk you through the process from start to end – and beyond. Our lifelong support for all of our families starts from the moment prospective adopters first contact us and through the years ahead, as the children transition through to adulthood.

We excited to be taking part in the Big Adoption Day 2025. Watch this space 👀
On Wednesday 15th January 2025, voluntary adoption agencies (VAAs) from across the UK are taking part in a national campaign, Big Adoption Day 2025, highlighting the need for more adoptive families for children at a time when thousands of children are still waiting in care. Big Adoption Day, led by the UK’s first children’s charity Coram with the Consortium of Voluntary Adoption Agencies UK (CVAA), will see participating agencies hosting in-person and online events in their local areas, and celebrating the real-life stories of families who have adopted, to encourage anyone interested in exploring adoption to find out more. To find out more about the events in your area, please see the full list of VAA events happening below: https://lnkd.in/eWcCM5wb
