1,2,3, or more? Adoption Now supports LGBTQ+ Adoption & Fostering Week

It’s LGBTQ+ Adoption & Fostering Week (6th March) and Adoption Now is backing calls for potential applicants to think about the number of vulnerable children they could parent.

The campaign led by New Family Social is highlighting the need for more LGBTQ+ applicants to explore adoption and fostering as latest estimates in England show 4 in 10 children with a sibling are separated from a sibling when placed in care.

Previous analysis showed 47 per cent of same-gender couples waiting for an adoption match were more open to considering groups of brothers and sisters, compared to 36 per cent of different-gender couples.

The need for people to consider adoption is greater than ever so if you could consider adopting 1, 2 3 or more children then we’d love to hear from you. You can complete our contact us form or call 01204 336096.
