The 23rd April 2021 see's the start of a new national adoption campaign from #YouCanAdopt that focuses on the need for more adopters to consider adopting brothers & sisters. Often taking longer to place, we wanted to shine a light on the process of adopting siblings by talking to one of our amazing adoptive families. In the episode we talk to Shauneen who, along with her husband Oliver adopted siblings. We talk about how they both arrived at the decision to adopt more than one child, the challenges they faced and also the highs of adopting brothers & sisters.

Or, alternatively you can ring our information line on 01204 336096. Our Information line is open 9am to 5pm Monday to Friday.

If you follow our social media channels you will no doubt have seen us talk about our information line, and how best to contact us if you’re thinking about adoption. However, we don’t always say exactly what happens when you do call, who will answer the phone and about the warm welcome that you will receive when you call us. So, in this episode of Adopter Stories we spoke to Debbie, one of our highly experienced social workers who may well be the person who picks up the phone when you call us. Amongst many things we talk about how much it means to you to pick up the phone and make that first call and the most common questions that we receive to our Information Line.
