Families for Children Adoption – 2015 diary of events – how can you help?

Families for Children Trust is a Voluntary Adoption Agency and charitable trust based in the South West.
At Families for Children we believe that the best place for a child to grow is with their birth families. However where this is not possible we endeavour to find new adoptive families who can offer them a stable and loving home.
The children we place are from all over the UK and we find new adoptive families for them in Devon, Dorset, Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly. Many of the children we place are vulnerable and have complex extra needs resulting from early childhood traumatic experiences, including abuse, neglect or extreme changes in their lives.
We place children of all ages, sibling groups, children with disabilities, black children and children of mixed heritage.
We are a specialist adoption agency providing advice and support for those who are considering adoption and also offer our ‘forever’ policy of support. This means that we can offer post adoption support to the child and new family for as long as they need us.
Our services include:
- Recruiting, preparing and assessing potential adoptive parents
- Provision of post adoption support
- Adult Adoptee Counselling for adoptees seeking information about their birth families
- Independent Birth Relative Service for parents of children being placed for adoption by the Bournemouth and Poole Local Authorities
