Story

Adoption UK is 50!

A big milestone, and an opportunity to pause, reflect and plan for the future. For 50 years we/Adoption UK have supported, advocated, championed and been there for adoptive families around the UK. Today our/their cause is as clear and compelling as ever; to secure the right support at the right time for the children at the heart of every adoptive and kinship care family.

Times are tough for every family but its especially challenging for those parenting children who have experienced neglect or abuse. Most Adopted children will have experienced trauma their early lives. This has a lasting impact on their relationships, health, learning and future chances. That's not fair!

Adoption gives children a second chance of stability, permanence, and the love and nurture that all children need but its a lifelong journey adoption on its own is not the solution. We wont stop until every family has what they need to thrive, and each child has the best chance of a brighter future.

Adoption UK provides groundbreaking peer support, community outreach and champions the rights of vulnerable children.

Join our team of amazing fundraising heroes and help us raise vital funds to make lasting changes for the children we love. /This year I'm helping Adoption UK to vital raise funds by becoming one of their Fundraising Hero's, ensuring that all adoptive families receive the help and support they need. Please help me make a difference and allow Adoption UK to be there for more families.
