Could you adopt?

Hundreds of children are looking for loving homes… all they need is an adoptive family to change their life.

Adoption Counts covers adoptions for Salford City Council and other Greater Manchester councils and all our teams are dedicated and focused on creating the best possible outcomes for all the children awaiting adoption.

We support families throughout the adoption process, from preparation before becoming an adopter, to ongoing and specialist support after a child has been placed with their forever family.

There is currently a national shortage of adopters and many children are waiting for adoption. Adoption Counts is particularly keen to hear from people who have been thinking about adoption and could consider older children, sibling groups, children with complex needs and children from a Black African and Black Caribbean background.

Adopters come from all walks of life. To meet the needs of children waiting for an adoptive family, we encourage enquiries irrespective of gender, sexual orientation, disability, race or faith. You can be single, in a civil partnership, married or co-habiting. Adoption Counts treats every enquiry with confidentiality and respect.

Adoption is a big decision and it could be the best you ever make. Visit: adoptioncounts.org.uk for more information.
